The ListView_InsertItem macro inserts a new item in a list view control. You can use this macro or explicitly send the LVM_INSERTITEM message.

int ListView_InsertItem(

HWND hwnd,
const LV_ITEM FAR *pitem
);

Parameters
hwnd

Handle to the list view control.

pitem

Pointer to an LV_ITEM structure that specifies the attributes of the list view item. The iItem member specifies the index of the new item.

You cannot use ListView_InsertItem or LVM_INSERTITEM to insert subitems; the iSubItem member of the LV_ITEM structure must be zero.

Return Values
Returns the index of the new item if successful or

1 otherwise.

Remarks
If a list view control has either the LVS_SORTASCENDING or LVS_SORTDESCENDING window style, an LVM_INSERTITEM message will fail if you try to insert an item that has LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK as the pszText member of its LV_ITEM structure.
