Slow loading listbox

I didn't see this problem discussed in the newsgroups, so I thought I'd list it in case someone runs across it

I was trying to populate a listbox with string fields from a recordset. I was trying to add approximately 11,000+ items to my listbox. It was taking several minutes to do this in VB.NET. Now, in my VB6 app, from which I am upgrading from, it was only taking 3 seconds. I discovered that the Sorted property of my listbox was set to True and this was slowing the loading down. My VB6 app also had the Sorted property set to True, but that seemed to be working just fine. Perhaps a bug?

Are you sure a user is able to select one of 11,000+ items?!
