    <p>I want to create an <code>HIMAGELIST</code> for the list view. It actually needs to consist of file icons.</p> <p>Here's the code I have:</p> <pre><code>HIMAGELIST imageList = ImageList_Create(GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSMICON), GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSMICON), ILC_MASK, 1, 1); HICON ico = reinterpret_cast&lt;HICON&gt;(LoadImage(0,IDI_APPLICATION, IMAGE_ICON,0,0,LR_SHARED)); ImageList_AddIcon(imageList, ico); ListView_SetImageList(listView, imageList, LVSIL_SMALL); </code></pre> <p>The list view with three elements now has three application items.</p> <p>However when I try to add another icon (<code>IDI_HAND</code> in this case), I still get the same 3 icons.</p> <p>Another problem I have is that I can't fetch the actual file icons I need:</p> <pre><code>SHFILEINFO sfi; SHGetFileInfo (L"C:\\test.txt", NULL, &amp;sfi, sizeof (sfi), SHGFI_SYSICONINDEX | SHGFI_SMALLICON); ImageList_AddIcon(imageList, sfi.hIcon); </code></pre> <p>This results in empty icons, not the <code>txt</code> icons I want.</p> <p>I've been struggling with this for ever, and I greatly appreciate your help here.</p> <p><em>UPDATE</em></p> <p>I'm using sample code I found on the Internet to fill the list view (obviously that's not what I want):</p> <pre><code>UINT columnMask = LVCF_TEXT|LVCF_FMT|LVCF_SUBITEM|LVCF_WIDTH; LVCOLUMN lc[] = { { columnMask, 0, 150, L"Text...",0, 0,0,0 }, { columnMask, LVCFMT_CENTER, 70, L"Number",0, 1,0,0 }, { columnMask, 0, 100, L"Whatever",0, 2,0,0 }, }; ListView_InsertColumn(listView, 0, &amp;lc[0]); ListView_InsertColumn(listView, 1, &amp;lc[1]); ListView_InsertColumn(listView, 2, &amp;lc[2]); UINT itemMask = LVIF_TEXT; LVITEM li[] = { { itemMask, 0,0, 0,0, L"...for the first item!",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 0,1, 0,0, L"1",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 0,2, 0,0, L"14 bucks",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 1,0, 0,0, L"...for the second item!",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 1,1, 0,0, L"24",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 1,2, 0,0, L"2 suns",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 2,0, 0,0, L"...for the second item!",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 2,1, 0,0, L"24",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 2,2, 0,0, L"2 suns",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 3,0, 0,0, L"...for the second item!",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 3,1, 0,0, L"24",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, { itemMask, 3,2, 0,0, L"2 suns",0, 0,0,0,0,0,0 }, }; // setting an icon like this doesn't work li[0].iImage = sfi.iIcon; ListView_InsertItem(listView, &amp;li[0]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[1]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[2]); ListView_InsertItem(listView, &amp;li[3]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[4]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[5]); ListView_InsertItem(listView, &amp;li[6]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[7]); ListView_SetItem(listView, &amp;li[8]); </code></pre>

    1. CO(1) Please provide more info about what you mean by "I still get the same 3 icons." Nowhere in your code do you actually try to use any of the icons you added. (2) If you pass `SHGFI_SYSICONINDEX` then you're saying "I don't want the `hIcon`. I'm only interested in the `iIcon`." Since you want the `hIcon`, you shouldn't pass that flag.

    2. CO@Raymond, I've updated my question. I'm adding the items to the listview via `ListView_InsertItem`. And I'm setting the image list with `ListView_SetImageList(listView, imageList, LVSIL_SMALL);`

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
