CheckedListBox.Items Read Only

[Corey Scheich]

Coming from mostly VBA to VB.NET so bare with me.

I am creating a form with a CheckedListBox. I want to populate the listbox
as the user types in a value. I tried to use

CheckedListbox.Items = SomeCollection

but I am getting a compile error saying that "Items" is a 'Read Only'
Property. How should I get around this.

Dim Items As New ArrayList()
Items.AddRange(New String() {"Foo", "Bar", "goo"})
Me.CheckedListBox1.Items.Clear()
Me.CheckedListBox1.Items.AddRange(Items.ToArray())
