Owner-Drawn Header Controls
You can define individual items of a header control to be owner-drawn items.
Using this technique gives you more control than you would otherwise have over
the appearance of a header item.
You can use the HDM_INSERTITEM message to insert a new owner-drawn item into a header control or the HDM_SETITEM message to change an existing item to an owner-drawn item. Both messages
include the address of an HD_ITEM structure, which should have the fmt member set to the HDF_OWNERDRAW value.
When a header control must draw an owner-drawn item, it sends the WM_DRAWITEM message to the parent window. The wParam parameter of the message is the child window identifier of the header
control, and the lParam parameter is a pointer to a DRAWITEMSTRUCT structure. The parent window uses the information in the structure to draw
the item. For an owner-drawn item in a header control, the DRAWITEMSTRUCT structure contains the following information.
