List Item Collections -Basic Web Controls

        The ListItemCollection object is a collection of List Item objects. Each List Item object represents one item in the list. Items in a ListItemCollection are numbered from 0.

       When the items into a list box are loaded using strings like: lstcolor.Items.Add("Blue") . then both the Text and Value properties of the list item are set to the string value you specify. To set it differently you must create a list item object and then add that item to the collection.

       The List Item Collection Editor is used to add item to a drop-down list or list box. This is used to create a static list of items. To display the Collection Editor select Edit item from the smart tag menu, or select the control and then click the ellipsis button from the Item property in the Properties window.
