Getting number of columns in ListView

[tbarto]

Hi

For some time I've been working on an application that may be able to find a specified item in ListView ( WinAPI ). It is possible to get some item using e.g LVM_GETITEM message and LVITEM structure. My question is: Do You know any way to get a number of columns in a ListView? Is there any specified message?

Thank You

I have found a solution, but just FYI if somebody experiences a similar problem. It is necessary to use LVM_GETCOLUMN message and LPLVCOLUMN structure. Then You need to use SendMessage with LVM_GETCOLUMN and a ref to LPLVCOLUMN. Go "right" through the list and increment a counter of columns until SendMessage returns - 1.
