ListView_SetBkImage macro (commctrl.h)

Sets the background image in a list-view control. You can use this macro or send the LVM_SETBKIMAGE message explicitly.

BOOL ListView_SetBkImage(
   HWND        hwnd,
   LPLVBKIMAGE plvbki
);

hwnd

Type: HWND

A handle to the list-view control.

plvbki

Type: LPLVBKIMAGE

A pointer to an LVBKIMAGE structure that contains the new background image information.

Type: BOOL

Returns nonzero if successful, or zero otherwise. Returns zero if the ulFlags member of the LVBKIMAGE structure is LVBKIF_SOURCE_NONE.

Because the list-view control uses OLE COM to manipulate the background images, the calling application must call CoInitialize or OleInitialize before using this macro. It is best to call one of these functions when the application is initialized and call either CoUninitialize or OleUninitialize when the application is terminating.
