OWL an ListBoxes

I have a listbox in a dialog box that is supposed to display a directory list.
The problem is that I can't get it to display the directory until I click in
it.  I would like the directory to be displayed when the dialog box is opened.
I have tried SendDlgItemMsg(id,LBN_SETFOCUS,0,0) but that does not seem to 
work.  Any ideas?



Thanks,

Phil Smith

Create a virtual function for WM_INITDIALOG and initialize your box there.

Actually, the virtual function setupwindow effectively does this for
you. Setupwindow is called for any kind of window (including dialogs
loaded as resources) just before display.
