HLP: MouseHover and ListView

[Mr. B]

Question #1:
How can you prevent a User from Stretching the Columns in a ListView?

Question #2:
How can you 'display' all the text of a cell when the column width is fixed?

Many Thanks!

Excellent... I'll look at this.

Hmmm. Thanks Herfried ... but maybe I didn't make myself all that clear. I
do not want to change the column width. I want it Fixed as it currently is.
But with something like a MouseOver event, I'd like to see one of those popup
lines that shows the full string. You see that sort of thing in File
Explorer.

Thanks Again!

Are you talking about the tooltip that should be shown when the user
hovers an item? The tooltip won't be shown if 'View' =
'Details'. I don't know a way to show it.

Something like that. Yes. I know the tooltip won't show it. Just was using
that as a 'guide'.

Oh well... thanks anyways.
