I just used google () to look up
listbox horizontal scroll
and got 2680 hits. When I confined the search to this newsgroup
(microsoft.public.pocketpc.developer), I got 16 hits. I checked
several and think you will find useful info this way.

First, you must use the WS_HSCROLL style with the listbox. And you
need to send the ListBox a LB_SETHORIZONTALEXTENT message. You can use
SendMessage directly, or use the ListBox_SetHorizontalExtent macro
(defined in windowsx.h). I use this with eVC; you may need to adapt
for another language.
