How can I change the position of new items at run-time?

Applies To: C++Builder 1 or higher

I can add new items using the Add method (as described in How can I add items at run-time?). Unfortunately, C++Builder inserts these new items at the end of the list. How can I specify the position where the new item will be inserted?

 

 

1.

  Start a new project using File | New Application.

 

2.

  Add a ListBox. Insert the items First and Third.

 

3.

  Add a Button. Edit its OnClick event:

 

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)

{

    ListBox1->Items->Insert(1, "Second");

}

 

When you click on the button, the Second item will appear at the second position.
