1. RE: ListView Column Width
Erik,
I found that having Windows set the column width for you is a pretty
easy approach to your problem. Here's an example:
void = sendMessage(listView, LVM_SETCOLUMNWIDTH, column, width_type)
where width_type is either a -1 or -2. -1 indicates to set the column
width based on the longest data element and -2 indicates to set the
width based on the column header text.
Hope it helps!

Yes you can. Either at ListView creation time (as Dan mentioned above) or
via the setLVColumn routine (I think that it's name). The '<', '^', '>'
indicate left, centre and right aligned text respectively.

3. RE: ListView Column Width
I had not noticed in the listview examples that you could create the
ListView with the column lengths and alignment. This is much easier than
the sendMessage I put into IDE to do this. I'll make some changes for
the next release. Thanks Dan.
With the next IDE release, probably August or September, I'll be
requiring the use of the latest Win32lib. I'll be using several new
routines recently developed; the one Derek mentions below is one of
them.
