Description: It all began when in an application I needed the column header in a ListView to display an image. I was surprised to find that .NET provides very limited implementation of the HeaderControl common control. With common controls version 4.70 and later, column header supports images from an ImageList and bitmaps. Well, .NET framework requires IE 5.0 at least, so that control version is meant to be available. Another thing not implemented in the default .NET header is the notifications sent to parent list view when the user starts dragging a column or ends dragging a column. I found that very annoying because in an application I wanted to have a hidden combo box which appears with the selected item. But to correspond properly on the column resize, I needed to resize the combo box also. But how to catch an event when there is no delegate for it... So I put all these missing features in one extended list view (it only extends the header control in detailed mode)...
