listbox items added not visible

[cs_hart]

This is a newbie question.
I use the following to add items to the list box. When I look at the
box, I see rows have been added. I can scroll and select an item and
obtain the row in the listbox handler. But there is no actual text in
the box. I added the j variable just to see if the rows were being
incremented. I didn't think I need the visible = true statement but
added it just to be sure.
This seems like elementry code so I'm sure this is something basic I'm
missing.
thanks...charlie

For i As Int16 = 0 To 5
Dim j as int = DateListBox.Items.Add("date1")
= DateListBox.Items.Add("date2")
j = DateListBox.Items.Add(selectDates(i))
Next
DateListBox.Visible = True

Maybe the problem is caused by an unpatched virus scanner. These symptoms
are typically caused by a McAfee VirusScan problem that NAI is aware of and
that can
be fixed by installing a patch:

As an update, after I handle a button click to process the list
selection, the values in the list box are visible. Strange to me.
