Hey guys, i'd like to make my own list box look just like the one in Outlook, could someone point me to what i need to read up on, or lend me a hand, i'll either do it in VB.NET or C# either one i don't mind and i'm comfortable in both.

Thanks.

Hi... these resources should help you:

MSDN
VBCity

I started to create something pretty cool today but didn't had the time to finish it. My ListBox control implements a Designer logic, where, by only changing the designer object, the control assumes a diferent layout.

Maybe later this week I'll finish it...

By the way...
The Outlook ListBox as you name it, isn't a ListBox... It's really a Grid, only showing the horizontal lines... Why?... 2 main reasons:
1- as you can see, it has column headers
2- The rows support grouping

With the XtraGrid from DevExpress you can easyally do this...

Alex :p
