The MFC tip of zafir Anjum on how to select an entire row works only,

as describe, with CListCtrl derived classes.

I found a astonishing sample in MSDEV Samples book which allow to use

only (!!) a CListView derived class (called CListViewEx) to do so,

without any CListCtrl-derived class (or just in order to have fun) need.

The principles are closed to those in the Zafir's article, but are generic

enough to allow you to derive your view for this class (all icons, images,

drag operations, selection are allowed without any modification of this

source code).

That's great only if you take care of a small thing : the size of the icon

displayed is force to (16,16), which can be manually edited or replace

by a variable easily. ;)
