Oh ok, i guess you want to use 'in place' editing?
For WinChecking, im using a single line edit control with something
like a 32k character limit, but the entry is still limited to 2047
chars mainly because of it's kind of use, which probably shouldnt
be too long anyway. The only text that displays in the listview
is that which is allowed to show when the header is dragged to
a wider width. If the user wants to see 2047 characters, they
have to click the 'get line' button (which might get changed
to a double click in the future). In this way, the user can
scroll the full 2047 characters. Im sure this could be extended
depending on the needs of the application.
So are you in fact using in-place editing then?
Take care,
Al

Hello again,
Oh ok i see. I just thought maybe you were using in place
editing and found it wasnt possibly to edit more then 259
chars or something.
In the program i was talking about, the SLE has the
autoHscroll style, so it can handle a lot of characters
that way, even though i dont think it would be too practical
to go too high. The MLE idea sounds better if you ask me
Now you guys got be wondering, if in place editing will
allow as many as 2047 characters or not? I guess i'll have
to try it at some point.
Take care for now,
Al
