hi all,

I'm really jarred off with the ListView that comes with the .NET v1.1.

Why didn't they bother to provide a nicely wrapped implentation of the Win32
ListView control? with support for retieving column orders, setting images
for sub items, access to the column headers, etc, the list goes on.

I've implemented numerous different classes derived from the .NET ListView,
mainly doing sutff like providing methods which return column order etc by
calling SendMessage to the control, handling WndProcs, etc, but each time I
do this it really winds me up as I can't believe there's not a ListView
control that does everything the Win32 ListView can do, nicely wrapped into
a .NET Class.

Does anyone know whether they've sorted this out in .NET v2.0? or know of a
comprehensive class that provide access to all the ListView's features?
or is it time to write one?

TIA
Sam
