'samle of loading a listview with 3 columns.

    Dim l As Long
    Dim dblRnd As Double
    Dim dteRnd As Date
    With ListView1
        ' Add three columns to the list - one for each data type.
        ' Note that the data type is set in the column header's
        ' tag in each case
'
        .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "String").Tag = "STRING"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "Number").Tag = "NUMBER"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "Date").Tag = "DATE"
