    Retrieve Data From List Box API

    Hey everyone

    I know how to retrieve *text* from a listbox via sendmessage and the LB_GETTEXT message...BUT does anyone know how to retrieve other types of data from a list box - namely an *image*.

    Specifically, what I am trying to do is retrieve the yellow away message note that is to the left of a users screen name on AIM.

    Help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks and have a nice day

    i have an awful feeling that what AIM uses is not a listbox....

    Tree

    Yes, you are correct..it is a tree, but the LB_GETTEXT seems to work with it..still, would you know any way to get the image?

    you could open the executable/its dlls with a resource hacker, to rip out the image

    e.g.

    reshacker

    What I am trying to do is detecting which users have away messages up. If I could traverse the list and somehow (what I am tring to do) check which items have the image, then I will be set.
    I'm stuck..
