Hi,

I am using a CListCtrl directly within a dialog box.  I use its member
function InsertColumn( ) to create columns, and InsertItem() to create
new items.  After these are done, I tried to use SetItemText() to set
the text for the sub items.  For some reason, only some of the text
would show up within the control and some don't.  Has anyone experience
this problem?  Does anyone knows what I have done wrong?

Any suggestion is appreciated, Thanks in advance!!!

Try this...

for (nItem=0; nItem<numberOfRows; nItem++)
{
        // Insert a the item first with a blank
        m_yourListCntl.InsertItem(nItem, " ");

        // Populate the screen with the new data
        m_yourListCntl.SetItemText(nItem, 1, "SubItem1_Text");
        m_yourListCntl.SetItemText(nItem, 2, "SubItem2_Text");

The previous response only works if sorting is turned off.  If it is turned
on, do the following instead:

int i,nItem;

 for (i=0; i<numberOfRows; i++)
 {
        // I'm recalling this from memory,  so you may want to check on-line help,
but I believe
        // that the first parameter should be -1 in order for an item to be
inserted wherever.
        // InsertItem will then return the item number that you need to use for
the sub items.
        nItem = m_yourListCntl.InsertItem(-1,"First Column Data");

        // Populate the screen with the new data
        m_yourListCntl.SetItemText(nItem, 1, "SubItem1_Text");
        m_yourListCntl.SetItemText(nItem, 2, "SubItem2_Text");
 }
