I can create a new ListViewItem, assign it text and add a SubItem to this.

I add it to my ListView, and the ListView.Items.Count is successfully
incremented.

However, the ListView looks empty!

I thought it was, but I can tap inside the ListView in the Emulator, key in
the UpArrow on my keyboard, and the ListView.SelectedIndex changes to the
ListViewItem I just added.

However, the currently selected ListViewItem is still not visible!

I have set the ListView's ForeColor to Black and BackColor to White, same as
the ListViewItem.

Why can't I see ListViewItems in my ListView?

It worked in the past on this Project, so I must have set something or
something has become corrupt. I made many, MANY changes to the code before
noticing the ListView was not showing ListViewItems, so I really don't want
to go back to the code from 2 weeks ago (I know, I should backup more
regularly).

Does anyone have any suggestions?

You don't have any columns/column headers added.

Have you created any columns for the listview?

Thanks both for the quick reply; however, I forgot to mention that I *do*
have two Columns in this ListBox.

Here are some more features of the ListBox:
BackColor = White
CheckBoxes = False
ForeColor = Black
View = Details
Activation = Standard
Columns Count = 2
HeaderStyle = None
Visible = True

I'll try setting the HeaderStyle to something other than None so they are
visible.

Any other suggestions?

I just answered this in Chris' reply (which was identical to yours), but I
wanted to add some additional information here:

I changed the HeaderStyle from None to Nonclickable, and ran my application
again.

In the designer, the first Column is "Part Number" and the second is "Status."

When I run the application, there are no column names displayed.

Did I break something?
