Remarks

If you pass empty string for className parameter, SG Window will register new class and create window with that class. In this case you are responsible for handling all messages for the created window becasue there is no default window procedure. clsWindow class in the sgWindow.vbp example from your SG Window samples folder shows how you can do it.

For more info please refer to CreateWindow function in Win32 API documetation.

Example

Folowing example creates list view control:

Private wnd As SGWindow.Window

   wnd.Create "SysListView32", "", _
       ws_CHILD + ws_BORDER + ws_VISIBLE, _
       0, 10, 10, 400, 300, Me.HWND, 1234
