Hi

Does listbox in vs2008 support multiple columns? I have not been able to set
the column widths property to 10, 20, 30 for instance as it expects an int32
value.

Thanks

Regards

The listbox can display tab-separated data in columns, but it's easier to
use a listview control instead.

As long as it is not used databound because then the datagridview is more an
option.

You're better off using a ListView or DataGridView, imho.
