Changing TextItem color in a ListView

Hello there,

Environment:MS Visual C++ 4.1, Windows 95

How can I change the text color of an Item in a ListView, Only one specific item. Not all 
the text (items ) in the ListView.

I've tried SetTextColor( COLORREF cr), but this member function will change the entire 
text to cr color, I do not want to perform this task, I want only to change the text 
color of a specific text item.

Did someone have an answer!

Someone suggest to me to use the LVS_OWNERDRAWFIXED style when my list is created 
combined with an LVS_REPORT, but which member function I have to use to Draw my items???

Microsoft Help (book on line)says:
=================================
LVS_OWNERDRAWFIXED: Enables the owner window to paint items in report view. The list view 
control sends a WM_DRAWITEM message to paint each item; it does not send separate 
messages for each subitem. The itemData member of the DRAWITEMSTRUCT structure contains 
the item data for the specified list view item.

Thanks guys.

Elie

Hi Elie,

Your qestion was : but which member function I have to use to Draw my
items???
I think that there is no predefined member function for this.
Use classwizard to create function for WM_DRAWITEM message in your
dialog class.

Regards,
Isaac.

Please check out the "rowlist" sample on the MFC CD. 
I found this by using a help "query" on "CListView", and looking for titles 
about samples.

look for the ODLIST.ZIP (OwnerDrawList) sample
of Microsoft's WebSite.

You need to provide a member function and
message map entry for the WM_DRAWITEM message
and you must draw all of the items,
even if want just one item to have different
text than the other items.
