If working with win32 (no MFC) take a look at this to change color of items in the list:

Using ListView control under Win32 API[^]

This part of the article says it all:
"You won't believe how much time I took to dig this up to actually work! I mean, 99.99% examples were MFC only!
So here we go, finally, pure WinAPI code for listview colors."

If you can use MFC, this this article shows an hyperlink:

CGridListCtrlEx - Grid Control Based on CListCtrl[^]

Hope it helps.

Solution 2

The ListBox control does not understand hyperlinks, only strings. However, you can use the LBS_OWNERDRAWFIXED style, as described in this MSDN page[^], and provide your own message handling to add such functionality.

Solution 3

Have a look at Create your own controls - the art of subclassing[^]

You can subclass the listbox, and keep track of when your item should be visible. Create a SysLink[^] control and place it over your item.
