 Change Checkbox Image in Listview Control
I'm writing an application that resembles a threaded newsreader. I've been trying to reproduce the threading functionality of Outlook Express ("+" symbol for expand, "-" symbol for contract). After monkeying around with image lists and such, I've decided that I can reproduce what I need by enabling checkboxes. What would be nice is if I could change the checkbox images to something a little more applicable. Is there a way through SendMessage to change the checkbox image? --- AC

Mainly because I want to use the header/column functionality, which, as far as I'm aware, is lacking in the standard Treeview control. --- AaronC
