I got it although I was not looking for that answer.
Put this code into a Sub Main and magically the listview will show the
background image and the listview items show only t he text.
Application.EnableVisualStyles()
Application.DoEvents()
Application.Run(New Form1)
Thanks for the help and the direction.
