Basically I have a listbox to which I add simple STRING items- I have a
progress bar which I increment whenever I populate another portion of the
complete set of items I wish to add. What I observe is that as more and more
are added, population of the list box takes longer and longer. ie the first
10th of the item set are added much much quicker than the last 10th. THis
occurs with about 40,000 listbox items. My worry is the listbox may
potenetially store many 100s of 1000s of items.
Is this a known feature of the standard listbox. I really want to use a
listbox control as it offers perfect functionality for what I need. Just
curious (worried) about the semi-exponentially increasing itel Add () time.
Many thanks.
