Demonstrates basic fuctions such as Add, Remove & Clear; but also some advanced funtions that use API tricks to find the index value for a string (or partial string); change an item in the list without knowing the index value in advance; and display a tooltip containing the complete name for items too wide to fit in the visible box (and only those items! Even checks for the existence of a scrollbar on the listbox). The comments in Instructions.bas will walk you though all the functions, and the code is heavily commented for the novice.
