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.

Me.CheckedListB ox1.Items.Clear ()
