Listview, Treeview, or Owner Draw
I want to display a listbox with the first part of the entry in one font, the second in another font. I had thought that owner draw was the best way to go for this, but I don't know enough about the other two to be sure. In essence, I want...
abc@vx279
where the "abc" section would be in one font, with the rest of the selection in another font, a completely different font.
So is owner draw the best way to do this, or is listview, or treeview, or something else?

Owner-drawn is the ONLY way to go.
A ListView is an enhanced list box, capable of presenting in different sizes and arrangements, and that can associate a picture to each item in the list.
A TreeView is a hierarchical view for data that is, well, hierarchical. The list of folders to the left in a Windows Explorer window is a TreeView. Perfect for displaying the directories in a drive because, you guessed it, they are hierarchically ordered.
Niether ListView nor TreeView can display a single item in two different fonts.
