Is there a way to get the text in a column header to wrap to multiple lines?
I'm using vb.net 2003.

Hello Marco,

The common control ListView as defined in Windows itself and implemented in
..NET Framework does not support multi-line column headers. If you still want
to implement this, you can consider coding a control inheriting from
System.Windows.Forms.ListView, or use owner-draw to user paint the column
headers. You could reference
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/customheader.asp for the latter.
