Methods
Name Type Description
AddItem (Long) Adds a new item in the listbox list and returns the index
ApplyFontChanges When setting a new font on the control you need to call this function in order to refresh the interface
BeginUpdate Permits you to start a long-time update on the control (for example by adding 1000 elements) without sending out many and many events. So it is faster!
Use un conjunction with [EndUpdate]
Clear Clears the list combo
EndUpdate Terminates a [BeginUpdate] reactivating the control after a long-time update
ExternalInitControl Some controls contained into this package may have bad iterations when used into Usercontrols.
This because VB6 cannot detect, in some cases, that the usercontrol is in Design or User mode so the control may appear running at design time (so you cannot move it in many cases).

Controls that may have problems are: ctlUniTextBoxXP, ctlUniRichTextBoxXP, ctlUniListBoxXP, ctlUniListBoxExXP, ctlUniComboBoxXP

Check this function for a solution sample
GetListIndexByY (Long) Returns the list index using the given coordinate
hWnd (Long) Retuns the handle associated with the control
IsInIME (Boolean) You can use this property for knowing if the KeyPress, KeyDown and KeyUp events have been raised by the active IME window associated to your control.
newIndex (Long) Returns the index of the latest item added
OLEDrag Starts an OLEDrag operation
RemoveItem Removes the item at a certain position
SelCount (Long) Returns the number of selected items
