Multi column listboxes

[Ed Staffin]

Hi,
Boy the docs are weak. All I want to do is create a
listbox with 2 columns. The docs suggest that if I set the
multicolumn property to true, all is well.

How do I add items? If I use the add method, it seems to
only support one item. Is there some delimiter I have to
use? Also, there is a column width property, but it seems
to only be for one column. How can I display multiple
columns with differing widths?

Thanks ... Ed

This will cause overflowing items to be shown in multiple columns.

Use a ListView control instead ('View' set to 'Details').
