You are correct. There is not a CMFCListView. You could create your own
view with an embedded list control or you could just use a CFormView with a
CMFCListCtrl taking up the whole real estate of the dialog. I think using a
CFormView would be a lot easier. You could just resize the list control at
run time to fill the whole view if you wanted.

I have to use a CListView right? CListView::GetListCtrl returns a
reference
to a CListCtrl... I don't believe there is a CMFCListView that returns a
reference to a CMFCListCntrl. Am I going to have to create my own class
that
inherits from CCtrlView that will use CMFCListCtrl?

You would use a CMFCListCtrl instead of a CListCtrl. This demo that you
can
download has that control in it. Maybe that would help you get started:

First off, I am new to programming for MFC, let alone Windows. I'm a
Senior
in college in CS, and have a decent grasp on programming concepts. So
please
bear with me if I make any crazy assumptions :)

I am trying to make an application that essentially lists messages that
get
streamed into the system. So I am wanting the main view to be a
CListCtrl,
however I also want some of the added functionality of the new MFC
feature
pack's CMFCListCtrl, however I'm not sure how to use it and cannot find
any
tutorials or examples that use it. My app's main view is a CListView,
and
that seems to only give you access to a CListCtrl. So I guess, my
question
is how do I use CMFCListCtrl with a CListCtrl?

Thanks,
Nick
