Question

How do you prevent a user from resizing the column width of a clistctrl (report view)?

Answer 1

You'll have to override theOnNotify method to catch header's TRACK messages.
Here is a solution: Prevent column resizing

Update: on newer MFC versions and on Vista, there is the LVCFMT_FIXED_WIDTH format flag.
You can set that flag when you insert the column: see LVCOLUMN Structure

LVCFMT_FIXED_WIDTH
Version 6.00 and Windows Vista. Can't resize the column; same as HDF_FIXEDWIDTH.
