The display text for the new item. |

Variant |
The position of the item in the list. If this argument is omitted, the item is added to the end of the list. |
Remarks
The RowSourceType property of the specified control must be set to "Value List".
This method is only valid for list box or combo box controls on forms.
List item numbers start from zero. If the value of the Item argument doesn't correspond to an existing item number, an error occurs.
For multiple-column lists, use semicolons to delimit the strings for each column (for example, "1010;red;large" for a three-column list). If the Item argument contains fewer strings than columns in the control, items will be added starting with the left-most column. If the Item argument contains more strings than columns in the control, the extra strings are ignored.
Use the RemoveItem method to remove items from the list of values.
