CListView owner draw

I am migrating a Borland 4.52 OWL application to MSVC++ and wanted to
convert my owner draw list box stuff to CListView with owner draw.
The original application had a number of synchronized list boxes. Each
was an owner draw LB whose entries could be text with different
fonts/colors or bitmaps. 

I have been unable to capture the WM_DRAWITEM events successfully and 
don't know where to turn. I have looked at the on-line documentation,
some of the examples: (DAOVIEW and CMNCTRLS) and much of the help.
I did look at the bug report (PSS ID Number: Q132289) but that implied
that DrawItem() was called all the time (if OnDrawItem was overridden
in the parent) and I wasn't able to get to work either.

Does anyone know where I can find an example of CListView or
(CListCtrl) with owner draw?

Thanks in advance,

Thanks.  You'd never believe how much easier this makes answering questions.

Use Spy++ to see what's really going on.

You might also want to read up on reflected messages, since you're using a 
CListView.  A CListView doesn't receive WM_DRAWITEM--it receives a reflected 
WM_DRAWITEM that you need to trap with a different bunch of macros.

How do you know my answer doesn't suck?
