Virtual List Control Description

This package provides an ActiveX control that adds speed, almost unlimited number of entries and page scroll buttons to the regular list control. The virtual control can handle an outrageous number of items. Specifically, the control can support an item count up to 4 billion. This is possible because the overhead of managing item data is placed on the owner. Whenever the list control needs to display an item, it will ask the owner (e.g. the Visual Basic Form) about the displayed data. The Virtual List control is just as easy to use as the regular List Control in Visual Basic. There are however some differences in the way you set the initial properties and how you manage your data. Main features: ItemCount: First of all the ItemCount property is read-write. You must initialise the control by setting this property to the expected number of items the control will display. GetItem event: The control has one important event that you must supply code for: the GetItem event. This event is fired whenever the control needs to paint a list item. You are responsible for looking up the item's text and return it. You can imagine that this event will fire a lot so careful management (caching) of your item data is important for performance.
