I'm working on a simple program. It will compile,but whenever I press the delete button a message pops up and says it needs to close. I looked at the error details and It's error code was 0xc0000005.
This is where I think the problem is:

for(i= 0; i < NumOfItems; i++)
            {


              ListView_GetItemText(hWndListView, i, 0, text, 256);
              ListView_GetItemText(hWndListView, i, 1, text2, 256);

            string s = text;
            ListViewText[i][0] = s;
            string s2 = text2;
            ListViewText[i][1] = s2;



            }

This is the whole code. I'm sorry for posting all of it, but the problem might be somewhere else.

Thanks for the help.

Would you please also post resource.h so that I can compile it ?

I think your problem is the way you are using ListViewText array beginning at line 272. This is a better way to do it. Note there is NO dynamic allocation needed and only one character buffer. You are allowed (and encouraged) to reuse data whenever possible and wherever it makes sense.

Note that I have added a couple lines to resize the vector to the correct number of elements. That was one of the main reasons your code did not work -- you were setting strings to non-existant rows and columns. I have not tested this code, but I THINK it will work.

vector< vector<string> > ListViewText;
            ListViewText.resize(NumOfItems);
            char text char[256];
            for(i= 0; i < NumOfItems; i++)
            {
                ListViewText[i].resize(2);
                ListView_GetItemText(hWndListView, i, 0, text, 256);
                ListViewText[i][0] = text;
                ListView_GetItemText(hWndListView, i, 1, text, 256);
                ListViewText[i][1] = text;
            }

Another problem with the above is: so what? You are putting all the strings in a 2d vector of strings which are immediately destroyed because of where that vector is declared. What do you intend to do with it ?
