    >> multi column listbox

    Hi I so new to vb.net that the paints still wet...

    I would like to load a listbox (as I would do using vba). The properties
    show multicolumn = true
    column width = 300

    How do I set the individual column widths?

    listbox1.add(ne wItem) appends a new item to my list.
    How do I add the additional column for each list item?

    Any ideas or suggestions appreciated :-)

      I think they must be the same size. Maybe try using a DataGrid...

          If, as I think you are, referring to some of the features of ListBox and
          ComboBox controls in MS Access, then you need to be aware that those 2
          controls are specific to MS Access.

          The multicolumn behaviour of the standard ListBox control means that items
          are listed down until the visible part of the list area is 'full' and then
          the next items 'flow' into the next column. It is not analoguous with a
          'grid'.

          If you need functionality analogous with a 'grid' then you need to consider
          using the ListView or DataGridView controls.
