Re: ListViews In Reverse

To specify the index of a new item when using LVM_INSERTITEM, the
Win32.hlp file says that the iItem member of the LV_ITEM structure specifies
the index of the new item.
  I think I poked in a number such as #FFFF before I called LVM_INSERTITEM
to add items to the end rather than the beginning of the list.
