Mike's VirtualListbox! (update 5/19/03)

The reason i wrote this class and project demo was because the vb listbox control is a great, fast and easy way of storing large amounts of information in memory and then being able to retreive that info after from an organized list w/indexed items etc. But.. What you will see in this class is the exact same thing as the vb listbox control except for the activex control interface of course (not a bad idea if you wanted to make one with this class). I also wrote functions in this class that arent included within the vb listbox control, such as RemoveDuplicates, ResizeList, RemoveItemByString, and FindItem. This class is faster than vbs listbox because the vb listbox is a memory hog (when it's listcount is in the thousands) because of the graphic routines and cause of this its slow as well. If all your using the vb listbox for is to store info, like i said earlier, then this is a better substitute since it's just code based and faster; not to mention it can hold more than 32k items. The great part about this is you can just keep adding functions and your own routines or modify mine to your own liking. What you can learn from this class is the following: (1) How to use and create property functions in classes such as Property Get or Property Let. (2) How to use arrays and their features in vb, such as UBound and LBound, redeclaring arrays, and how to preserve them as well. Enjoy :) [update, added SetItem sub to store info as well as read infro from the listbox. I forgot to add this long ago)
