Parameters

hitem

Handle to the item to edit.

Return Values

The handle to the edit control used to edit the item text indicates success. NULL indicates otherwise.

When the user completes or cancels editing, the edit control is destroyed and the handle is no longer valid. You can safely subclass the edit control, but do not destroy it.
