CComboBox::InsertString

int InsertString( int nIndex, LPCTSTR lpszString );

Return Value

The zero-based index of the position at which the string was inserted. The return value is CB_ERR if an error occurs. The return value is CB_ERRSPACE if insufficient space is available to store the new string.

Parameters

nIndex

Contains the zero-based index to the position in the list box that will receive the string. If this parameter is –1, the string is added to the end of the list.

lpszString

Points to the null-terminated string that is to be inserted.

Remarks

Inserts a string into the list box of a combo box. Unlike the AddString member function, the InsertString member function does not cause a list with the CBS_SORT style to be sorted.

Example

// The pointer to my combo box.
extern CComboBox* pmyComboBox;

// Insert items in between existing items.
CString str;
int n = pmyComboBox->GetCount();
for (int i=0;i < n;i++)
{
   str.Format(_T("item string %c"), (char)('A'+i));
   pmyComboBox->InsertString( 2*i, str );
}
