Hi,

Is there a limitation on the number of entries to be displayed in a ListView
control?

I have about 2000 entries and it doesn't list all of them. It lists only
like 75% entries.
Is there a way to increase the size for internal displaying of these entries
in the List view?

Thanks
Shakil

First, think again if you really want such a huge number of items in the
list, since from a UI design point a view, some users may find it poorly
usable. But if you really need it, take a look at the concept of Virtual
ListView:

my listview can do 50k items fairly easily. Check it out, the non
source version is free. You shouldn't need a virtual list to handle
2000 items.
