1. For check box you should set extendet style lvs_ex_checkboxes. Also list should have style report. 2. For combo box there ia not standart method to inserting combo box. There are a lot of 3party classes for inserting combo to list. But in principles you should derivite your own class from listctrl. Reload mouse click setfocus and several notifications. The best solution to do with yourself, just find CMFCGridCtrl and copy principles of opening combo box. In real life click and other notifications are same

But if you want my opinion MFC is old and not usefull framework. QT for your purpose is best solution. It has similar syntax, inctead of C in begining class names ,QT has Q. CListBox, QListBox. Qt more usefull more powerfull, a lot of controls already implemented basically.
