[URGENT] How do i create a large list of edit boxes using mfc?

[URGENT]

Hi,

I need to create a large list of edit boxes each with its own check box and CButton. As the space is limited it will also have to have a vertical scroll bar..

Any ideas??

Hi Aland Li,

So sorry for not replying but been kinda swamped.

I tried a fiddling around with datagrid for a bit but it wasnt getting me the look i was going for.

So i just went with a child dialog box and added all the edit boxes, buttons, scroll bar etc programatically...

took a bit of coding but it worked just fine.

Hi garedkarl,

As far as I know, there is no such control in MFC, but the DataGridView control in .Net WinForm can do similar things. In WinForm, we can add three columns to the DataGridView to show such a list: DataGridViewTextBoxColumn, DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn and DataGridViewButtonColumn. We can also use a WinForm control in a MFC dialog.

These are some links:
Using WinForms controls in an MFC dialog: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/miscctrl/mfcdialogwinforms.aspx.
DataGridView details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.aspx.

Please let me know if this does not help.
