Listbox Colored items or alternative?

[Cusem]

Hey guys,

I'm a total n00b on Listboxes/listviews.

About a year ago I wanted a status window that allows me to display status messages for a script and I used the following code:

$gui_status = GUICreate("Status", 233, 539, 786, 0)
$list_status = GUICtrlCreateList("", 7, 7, 219, 490, $WS_BORDER + $WS_VSCROLL);x=-30 y=-40

Func Status($msg)
    _GUICtrlListBox_AddString ($list_status, $msg)
    _GUICtrlListBox_SetTopIndex ($list_status, _GUICtrlListBox_GetCount ($list_status) - 1)
EndFunc


BLABLABLA
Status("blablabla Finished")

SOME ERROR IN SCRIPT
Status("error in script")

etc. etc.

This works fine, however I'd like to display particular messages in a specific color. For instance, all messages are black (standard) but lines containing error messages are displayed in red.

Is this possible?

Or do I have to use another control like a listview?

If so, could someone make an example of code that creates the listview and a function to add lines like the Status function?

I tried messing around with listview, but the functions are so extensive, I don't really know where to begin.

Thanks!

You'd probably want to search the example forum for some RichEdit UDFs.
