Re: ListView-style column headers?

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Extending the standard ListView or TreeView controls is almost
certainly not going to give you the flexibility you require. So
writing from scratch (or modifying a CodeProject component) is probably
the right approach. You can handle XP theme style column header
painting by using the UxTheme DLL API via DllImport. There are some
articles on CodeProject on how to do this.

Writing a Treeview/Listview control from scratch is not a trivial task.
You might want to consider some of the commerical components
available. Infralution has a combined Tree/ListView called VirtualTree
that has a lot of flexibility and allows you to modify just about any
aspect of its behaviour and/or appearance through inheritance. You can
