CListCtrl Focus Highlighting

When a list view control loses focus, the highlight from the currently
selected item is removed, so even though an item is selected, you can't
tell until you give focus back to the control.  In a normal list box the
selected item keeps its highlight.  Is there a way to get the list view
control to do the same without making it owner-drawn?  If not, has anyone
already solved this problem who would like to share the answer?

Thanks,

Well this is an undocumented thingy. Use flag LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS during
Create. 

dwStyle |=  LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS | other flags

[Moderator's Note: This is documented in VC++ 4.0.]

Good luck,
