so actually the dialog has the function in header but no code in definition, isn't it?

BOOL CDialogDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg) 
{
    if (pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN && (pMsg->wParam == VK_ESCAPE ))
    {
        return TRUE;
    }
	
    return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}

CListCtrl* pmyListCtrl;
int nColumnCount = pmyListCtrl->GetHeaderCtrl()->GetItemCount();
