Syntax

  1. TCM_SETITEMEXTRA wParam = (WPARAM)(int) cb; lParam = 0;

Parameters

cb

Number of extra bytes.

Return Values

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure.

Remarks

By default, the number of extra bytes is four. An application that changes the number of extra bytes cannot use the TCITEM structure to retrieve and set the application-defined data for a tab. Instead, you must define a new structure that consists of the TCITEMHEADER structure followed by application-defined members.
