Syntax

LVM_SETITEM wParam = 0;
lParam = (LPARAM)(const LV_ITEM FAR *) pitem;

Parameters

pitem

Pointer to an LVITEM structure that contains the new item attributes. The iItem and iSubItem members identify the item or subitem, and the mask member specifies which attributes to set.

Return Values

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure.

Remarks

If the mask member specifies the LVIF_TEXT value, the pszText member is the address of a null-terminated string and the cchTextMax member is ignored.

If the mask member specifies the LVIF_STATE value, the stateMask member specifies which item states to change and the state member contains the values for those states.

To set the attributes of a list view item, set the iItem member of the LVITEM structure to the index of the item, and set the iSubItem member to zero. For an item, you can set the state, pszText, iImage, and lParam members of the LVITEM structure.
