mask

Specifies which members of this structure contain data to be set or are being requested. It can be a combination of one or more of the following flags.

Value	Description
LVIF_GROUPID	The iGroupIdmember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_TEXT	The pszTextmember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_IMAGE	The iImagemember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_INDENT	The iIndentmember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_NORECOMPUTE	The control will not generate a LVN_GETDISPINFO message to retrieve text information if it receives a LVM_GETITEM message. Instead, the pszTextmember will contain LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK.
LVIF_PARAM	The lParammember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_STATE	The statemember is valid or must be filled in.
LVIF_DI_SETITEM	The operating system should store the requested list item information, and not ask for it again. This flag is used only with the LVN_GETDISPINFO message.

iItem

Zero-based index of the item to which this structure refers.

iSubItem

One-based index of the subitem to which this structure refers, or zero if this structure refers to an item rather than a subitem.

state

Current state of the item if the item's state is being retrieved, or the new state if the item's state is being set. The stateMaskmember specifies which bits of this member should be retrieved or modified. Any bits in this member that are not set in stateMaskwill be ignored. This member can be any valid combination of list-view state values.

stateMask

Specifies which bits of the statemember will be retrieved or modified.

If the item's state is being retrieved, this member enables you to specify which states will be retrieved. For example, setting this member to LVIS_SELECTED will cause only the item's selection state to be retrieved.

If item's state is being modified, this member allows you to modify one or more states without having to retrieve all of the states first. For example, setting this member to LVIS_SELECTED and stateto zero will cause the item's selection state to be cleared, but none of the other states will be affected.

To retrieve or modify all of the states, set this member to ( UINT) –1.

pszText

Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the item text if the structure specifies item attributes. If this member is the LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK value, the item is a callback item. Do not set the pszTextmember to LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK if the list-view control has LVS_SORTASCENDING or LVS_SORTDESCENDING style.

If the structure is receiving item attributes, this member is the pointer to the buffer that receives the item text.

cchTextMax

Size of the buffer pointed to by the pszTextmember. If the structure is not receiving information, this member is ignored.

iImage

Index of the list-view item's icon in the icon list and the small icon image list.

If this member is the I_IMAGECALLBACK value, the parent window is responsible for storing the index. In this case, the list-view control sends the parent an LVN_GETDISPINFO message to get the index when it needs to display the image.

lParam

Specifies the 32-bit value of the item. If you use the LVM_SORTITEM Smessage, the list-view control passes this value to the application-defined comparison function. You can also use the LVM_FINDITEM message to search a list-view control for an item with a specified lParamvalue.

iIndent

Number of image widths to indent the item. A single indentation equals the width of an item image. Therefore, the value 1 indents the item by the width of one image, the value 2 indents by two images, and so on. Note that this member is supported only for items. Attempting to set subitem indentation will cause the calling function to fail.

iGroupId

Identifier (ID) of the group. It can be one of the following values.

Value	Description
I_GROUPIDCALLBACK	The listview control sends the parent an LVN_GETDISPINFOnotification message to retrieve the index of the group
I_GROUPIDNONE	The listview control has no group.

The LVITEMstructure is used with a number of messages, including LVM_GETITEM, LVM_SETITEM, LVM_INSERTITEM, and LVM_DELETEITEM.

This structure supersedes the LV_ITEMstructure.

Size of the buffer pointed to by the pszTextmember if the structure is receiving item attributes. This member is ignored if the structure specifies item attributes.
