Several of the new common controls in Microsoft Windows 95 are designed to provide a user interface for list management. These controls range from straightforward lists that can display various amounts of data (list view controls) to hierarchically structured lists of items (tree view controls) to lists of visual representations such as bitmaps and icons (image lists). In addition, you can use a column header (also called a header control), like those used with list view controls, to better organize and display your lists.
This chapter shows you how to use these new list management common controls in your applications. Because both list view and tree view controls use image lists, we'll look at image lists first.
