Show multiple rows in listcontrol MFC

Hey guys

I got a listcontrol element in my MFC-dialog (View->Report).
What I wanted: 2 columns, all rows read out from database

I tried:

LVITEM lvItem;

m_List.InsertColumn(1, "First Column", 0, 150, 1);   // could be created
m_List.InsertItem(1, "First Row");   // could NOT be created

"InsertItem.." could not be created, so I tried another way...

lvItem.mask = LVIF_TEXT;
lvItem.iItem = 0;
lvItem.iSubItem = 0;
lvItem.pszText = "Row one";
m_List.InsertItem(&lvItem);

What am I doing wrong or do I have to add something else?

Item and column indexes start at 0. If you want to have two columns, you must insert two:

C++

InsertColumn(0, _T("Column 1"), LVCFMT_LEFT, 100, 0);
InsertColumn(1, _T("Column 2"), LVCFMT_LEFT, 100, 1);

Then add items to the list where InsertItem() specifies the main item which is shown in the first column and the additional columns are specified by SetItemText():

C++

InsertItem(0, _T("Item 1-1"));
SetItemText(0, 1, _T("Item 1-2"));
InsertItem(1, _T("Item 2-1"));
SetItemText(1, 1, _T("Item 2-2"));

I tried your solution, but it's the same problem as I had before... the program crashes by the line "setItemText(...)"

Then there must be something else wrong. At first you can put all calls into VERIFY() macros to see which function fails first (requires debug build):
VERIFY(m_List.InsertColumn(...) >= 0);
VERIFY(m_List.InsertItem(...) >= 0);
VERIFY(m_List.SetItemText(...) != 0);
Ensure also that the control uses the report style:
ASSERT((m_List.GetStyle() & LVS_TYPEMASK) == LVS_REPORT);

You must have the LVS_REPORT style to be able to display multiple columns.

Well, it was such a stupid fault...

I tried and tried...finally, I just had to change some properties:

Owner Data : False
Owner Draw Fixed : False
