Hi all,

is it possible to change the background-color of a treeview control?? I did
not find such a property in the control. I tried the sample code from MSDN,
but the background of the nodes' text rests white. How can I manage to have
a proper background color set??

any answer appreciated

Hi Alex,

thank you for your suggestion, but the effect rests the same.
Text-Background stays white.
I will keep on searching for a solution.

best regards

Hi,
probably this is because you use MSCOMCTL, not comctl32

Hi,

this is right, I am using MSCOMCTL, but when I try to set a reference to
comctl32 I get an error-message saying that I can't create a reference to
this DLL, even when I remove my reference to MSCOMCTL first.

any suggestions?

Hi,
yes, you have to use OCX, not dll, and you can use only one of them - either
MSCOMCTL.ocx or comctl32.ocx
so you have do delete all controls from MSCOMCTL from your MDB, then remove
reference to it, then insert control from comctl32.ocx

Hi Alex,

thank you for your informations, that helped me a lot. Don't you know, if
there is something similar for the MSCOMCTL-treeview also??

For the moment, it works great.
