CListCtrl How to insure a row & column are visible?

[M. Thomas Groszko]

I know an item and column that I want to be visible in a CListCtrl.
"EnsureVisible" allows me to scroll the item into view. How do I scroll the
column into view?

Thanks

You could try scrolling the item into view with EnsureVisible(), then use
GetColumnWidth() to add up the widths of the columns up to the column you
want, then use Scroll() to scroll it across the desired amount.

Thanks That works great!

CListCtrl & ListCtrl = GetListCtrl();
ListCtrl.EnsureVisible(item, FALSE);
int ColumnIndex;
int StartColPosition = 0;
for (ColumnIndex = 0; ColumnIndex < column; ++ColumnIndex)
{ StartColPosition += ListCtrl.GetColumnWidth(ColumnIndex);
}
int CurrentScrollPosition = ListCtrl.GetScrollPos(SB_HORZ);
CSize ScrollAmount(StartColPosition - CurrentScrollPosition, 0);
ListCtrl.Scroll(ScrollAmount);

But this also seems to work

CListCtrl & ListCtrl = GetListCtrl();

CRect ItemRectangle;
ListCtrl.GetSubItemRect(item, column, LVIR_BOUNDS, ItemRectangle);
ListCtrl.Scroll(CSize( ItemRectangle.left,
ItemRectangle.top - 2*(ItemRectangle.bottom - ItemRectangle.top)));

GetSubItemRect is documented to return the rect of the subitem however it
seems to return
a rect relative to some current scroll position because when I want a
subitem prior to the
current scroll I can get negative xy values?????
