Adding items programmatically to RadListBox

HOW-TO
Add items programmatically to RadListBox

SOLUTION
This could be done using the Add method of Items collection. The important thing is that the Items collection is a collection of objects of type RadItem and in the case below - objects of type RadListBoxItem. You should always use descendant objects of type RadItem when you work with Items collection .Since RadItem class is designed as a base class instances of this type have no visual presentation and will not appear even when added to the collection. 

Here is a code snippet that should help you with this:

RadListBoxItem test1 = new RadListBoxItem("item 1");
radListBox1.Items.Add(test1);

Note: There are several constructors of RadListBoxItem with different parameters. In this case, the constructor takes as parameter the text of the new item which is then shown in the listbox.
