List Control with LVS_LIST style

I have added a list control from resource onto a dialog box.

CListCtrl m_lcFileView;

Now i want to make the list control style to change to list view like the Tile View in a Notepad Save As Dialog Box when we click the view menu.

I have written the following code to change its style to List view like the Tile view.
I have images of the size 50 pixels width and height both.
When we click any item in this view then text and image both gets selected but the selection which happens is of the height of the image which is not the actual way it happens in general for any other list control style.

m_lcFileView.ModifyStyle(0,LVS_LIST);
m_lcFileView.ModifyStyle(LVS_ALIGNTOP,LVS_ALIGNLEFT);
m_ilListView.Create(50,50,ILC_COLOR24|ILC_MASK,5,1);
bitmapList.LoadBitmap(IDB_BITMAP_ICON_VIEW);
m_ilListView.Add(&bitmapList,RGB(255,0,255));
m_lcFileView.SetImageList(&m_ilListView,LVSIL_SMALL);

Please help me restore the selection to the height of the text only .
