Add multiple colums to a listview

[abdul]

Is there any example, code, tutorials that teaches you how to make multiple columns in a listview and then add the rows to it?

Thanks if you provide me some link

Would it be out of line to suggest MSDN?

I already looked at msdn but it has the whole explorer application which is a little hard to understand. That is why I want just some code that can add even one row to a multicolumn listview

When you send the add item message, you can specify in the LV(_)ITEM structure what subitem to add it to.

Send LVM_INSERTCOLUMN to insert a column and LVM_INSERTITEM to insert an item.

But how do I use it? I am posting the function that I am using to create a listview with two columns and then I am trying to add two items to each column in a row. But it is actually adding the items to only the first column on two rows

HWND CreateListView(HINSTANCE hinstance, HWND parenthwnd)
{

    HWND lvhwnd;
    INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX icex;
    RECT rect;
    LVCOLUMN lvc;
    LVITEM lvi;

    GetClientRect(parenthwnd, &rect);

// Ensure that the common control DLL is loaded. 
icex.dwSize = sizeof(INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX);
icex.dwICC  = ICC_LISTVIEW_CLASSES;
//Initialize the commoncontrols library
    InitCommonControlsEx(&icex);

    //Create the listview control

    lvhwnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,
                            WC_LISTVIEW,
                            "",
                            WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | LVS_REPORT | LVS_EDITLABELS,
                            14,
                            65,
                            rect.right - 106,
                            rect.bottom - 155,
                            parenthwnd,
                            NULL,
                            hinstance,
                            NULL);

    GetClientRect(lvhwnd, &rect);

    //Add the columns the in the listview
    lvc.mask = LVCF_WIDTH | LVCF_TEXT;
    lvc.pszText = "Macro";
    lvc.cx = rect.right /3;

    ListView_InsertColumn(lvhwnd, 0, &lvc);

    lvc.mask = LVCF_WIDTH | LVCF_TEXT;
    lvc.pszText = "Macro Definition";
    lvc.cx = rect.right - (rect.right /3);

    ListView_InsertColumn(lvhwnd, 1, &lvc);
    //Add the item in the listview

    lvi.mask = LVIF_TEXT |LVIF_PARAM | LVIF_STATE;
    lvi.pszText = "AAA";//LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK; // sends an LVN_GETDISPINFO message.
    lvi.iItem = 0;
    lvi.state = 0;
    lvi.stateMask = 0;
    lvi.iSubItem = 0;

    ListView_InsertItem(lvhwnd, &lvi);

    lvi.mask = LVIF_TEXT | LVIF_PARAM | LVIF_STATE;
    lvi.pszText = "AAA";//LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK; // sends an LVN_GETDISPINFO message.
    lvi.iItem = 0;
    lvi.state = 0;
    lvi.stateMask = 0;
    lvi.iSubItem = 0;

    ListView_InsertItem(lvhwnd, &lvi);

    return lvhwnd;
} 

[parksie]

lvi.iSubItem = 0;

Play around with this value
