How to get co-ordinate pts of items in a list control..???

[LOOSER_007]

I am using Doc/View arch in my application, there is a list control in one of the view also some items in other view..... I need to know the co-ordinates of these items programmatically... also i want to use "Right Click" button available in the keyboard to popup a menu at this co-ordinates... i am able to popup a menu on a mouse rt click but not with the keyboard....???

Please anybody tell me the way to do this....!!!!

What messages have you handled for the context menu?

To get position of controls, you could do this:

CRect rcRect;
myListCtrl.GetWindowRect(&rcRect);

To get position of controls, you could do this:

CRect rcRect;
myListCtrl.GetWindowRect(&rcRect);

But OP needs to get coordinates of list control item(s), not a control itself!

.. there is a list control in one of the view also some items in other view..... I need to know the co-ordinates of these items programmatically...

Have a look at CListCtrl::GetItemRect and CListCtrl::GetSubItemRect methods in MSDN.

.. also i want to use "Right Click" button available in the keyboard to popup a menu at this co-ordinates... i am able to popup a menu on a mouse rt click but not with the keyboard....???

As cilu guessed, you might implement it in some wrong message handler?
You should do it in OnContextMenu message handler (message WM_CONTEXTMENU) in your View (or CListCtrl) derived class.
