Microsoft used the most current virus detection software available on the date of posting to scan this file for viruses. Once posted, the file is housed on secure servers that prevent any unauthorized changes to the file.
Microsoft Visual Basic 3.0 introduced a hierarchical list box VBX control, which can be very useful to display data. The Outline control supports the use of bitmaps and lines to expand and collapse the visual display (similar to the File Manager in Windows 3.1).
This sample program also shows how to dynamically modify a picture property for a typical VBX control. The default picture values in MSOUTLIN.VBX are not functional in an MFC application, and therefore the properties must be reinitialized during run time. The pictures used are included as resources by App Studio in the .RC file.
