Compiling a smaller project
There is a great sample project here:
www.codeproject.com/listctrl/xlistctrl.asp
I can run the executable (anyone can do that) but I have had no
luck in compiling any of the projects. I get a variety of different
errors from unicode errors to
Cannot open include file: 'uxtheme.h':
Any chance any one can help me compile a smaller project
of a listctrl without Unicode and without the file
visualstylesxp.h? Im trying to find a listctrl that lets the
user edit individual cells and this project can do it. I just
cant get it to work.
Please, please, any response any one can give me will be greatly
appreciated.
My email address is brinasas@yahoo.com
Sincerely,
Danielle Brina (an overworked graduate student)

How about this? I attached a sample project with xlistctrl built
in.
How can I make the individual cells editable so that someone could
click on a cell and change the text to something else?
Please, any response any one can give me will be greatly
appreciated.

Post a comment at that article and ask the author about issues/problems you've got.
Alternatively, you can find many articles at dev-archive ( http://www.dev-archive.com/cpp/controls/listview/), showing beside others, how to make individual listview items editable.

Danielle - the error message that you saw (Cannot open include file: 'uxtheme.h') suggests that this project requires you to install the Windows Server 2003 Platform SDK (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=484269E2-3B89-47E3-8EB7-1F2BE6D7123A&displaylang=en). My system already has it installed so I downloaded the original project and it does compile correctly... with the Platform SDK.
If I remember correctly, the Platform SDK was quite a lengthy download but it's well worth installing - because many projects available from The Code Project seem to rely on it.
Once you've installed it, you'll need to add an extra path to your "include folders" (using Tools->Options->Directories) and you similarly need to add an extra path to your "Library files". Once you've done that, it should all work.
