    I'm using this code:

char a[200];
strncpy(a, cFileName.c_str(), 199);

RECT r;
r.left   = 0;
r.top    = 0;
r.bottom = lb->ItemHeight;
r.left   = lb->Width - 20;

if (!DrawTextEx(lb->Handle, a, 199, &r, DT_MODIFYSTRING | DT_PATH_ELLIPSIS,
NULL))
  return;
else
    lb->Items->Add(a);

    But, it allways fails. "lb" it TListBox control. Am I doing something 
wrong? I don't want to draw anything, just to format string.
