Well that took care of the exception. (it was left there by mistake). Now my 
code looks like this:
bool __fastcall TListViewEx::CanEdit(TListItem* Item)
{
 bool RetVal(true);

   if (0 < ColumnToEdit)  // ignore the Caption, let it do its default 
handling
   {
    if (NULL != FOnSubItemEditing)
       FOnSubItemEditing(this, Item, ColumnToEdit, RetVal);
      if (RetVal)
      {
         HWND hEdit = ListView_GetEditControl(Handle);   // get the inline 
editor's handle

         if (NULL != hEdit)
         {
            TRect R;

            if(GetEditRect(Item, ColumnToEdit, R)) // determine the 
dimensions of the subitem being edited
            {
               MYWNDPROC TempEditProc;
               LONG TempStyle;

               // move the inline editor over the subitem
               MoveWindow(hEdit, R.Left, R.Top - 2, R.Width(), R.Height() + 
24, TRUE);

               // update the inline editor's text with the subitem's text 
rather than the Caption
               SetWindowText(hEdit, 
Item->SubItems->Strings[ColumnToEdit -1 ].c_str());

               // subclass the inline editor so we can catch its movements
               TempEditProc = (MYWNDPROC)GetWindowLong(hEdit, GWL_WNDPROC);
               if (TempEditProc != (MYWNDPROC)MyEditWndProc)
               {
                  // Get The Current Style;
                  TempStyle = GetWindowLong(hEdit, GWL_STYLE) | 
ES_MULTILINE;
                  TempStyle &= (~WS_HSCROLL & ~ES_AUTOVSCROLL);
                  SetWindowLong(hEdit, GWL_STYLE, TempStyle);
                  SendMessage (hEdit, CM_RECREATEWND, 0, 0);

                  OldEditProc = TempEditProc;
                  SetWindowLong(hEdit, GWL_WNDPROC, (LONG)MyEditWndProc);
               }
            }
         }
      }
   }
   else if (NULL != OnEditing)
    OnEditing(this, Item, RetVal);
   return RetVal;
}
But it still does not accept multi line text. You cannot even paste multi 
line text into it.
Is there a way to replace the default edit control with our own? Foe example 
create our own TMemo and tell the list view to use that one insted?

Thank You
