Data types for available data list box

When forming custom dialogs, Available data list fields can be added to a dialog using the GW_AVAILABLE flag in the LISTBOX statement. This is used with edit controls with the GW_AVAILABLE flag set in their EDITEXT statement. The edit field that last had focus receives a copy of the identifier name, when the name is double-clicked in the Available data list. By default, all data types are displayed in the Available data list. You can restrict the data displayed in the Available data to a subset of data types by setting one or more of the data type flags in the EDITTEXT statement.
