Listview vertical scrollbar only

[tJ]

I am trying to replicate the functionality/display of the MS Outlook
attachment box.

I now know how to gather the file type icons and I'm able to use them
in my listview with its' view property set to "smallicon" .

My problem is that when many items are displayed in the listview, BOTH
the horizontal and vertical scrollbars display. Is it possible to
enforce the vertical scrollbar ONLY? If so, can you please give me some
idea how to go about it?

Thanks in advance.

if you cannot accomplish that with .net, use win32 ShowScrollBar function
inside list's Layout event handler.

Hi Wiktor

Do u have an example?

(assuming that you are familiar with P/Invoke)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...wscrollbar.asp
[DllImport("user 32")]
public static extern int ShowScrollBar( IntPtr handle, int wBar, int bShow)

....
ShowScrollBar( listView.Handle , 0, 0 );

Do you know if there is a way of having the scrollbar bigger.
By bigger, I mean that on a Pocket PC, we could use big fingers for scrolling and not the small stylus.

Is the only way of doing this is to make my own control? :(

I am currently doing the following (which I cannot figure our how to change the size of the scrollbar without having to redraw everything):

class BuddyListView : System.Windows. Forms.ListView
{
protected override void OnPaint(System. Windows.Forms.P aintEventArgs e)
{
// ????? what should I put here???
base.OnPaint(e) ;
}
}


Any "easier" suggestion?

Thanks
