Passing Property to Form

[Middlemarch]

Files contains an array of filenames. (There can be up 60+ so the Split OpenArgs method didn't seem ideal),
Yes to Listview and ActiveX. Three columns are used. This is in frmER.

Sub FillList()
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim xmp As clsMP3ID3V2
    Dim FL As clsFlacTag
    For i = 1 To UBound(filenames)
        Set TheListview = ListView8.ListItems.Add(, , filenames(1))
        TheListview.SubItems(1) = StripPath(filenames(i))
        Select Case fExt(TheListview.SubItems(1))
           Case "mp3"
               Set xmp = New clsMP3ID3V2
               xmp.mp3File = filenames(i)
               TheListview.SubItems(2) = xmp.EncodedBy
               TheListview.SubItems(3) = xmp.LinkTo
           Case "flac"
                Set FL = New clsFlacTag
                FL.Flacfile = filenames(i)
               TheListview.SubItems(2) = FL.EncodedBy
               TheListview.SubItems(3) = FL.LinkTo
        End Select
    Next
End Sub

here is another method.
before anything open Form1 in design view and see the Property
and on that property it is populating the listbox.

now open MainForm still in Design view and see the Click event
of the button where we are Instantiating Form1 and filling our
array to be passed to Form1.

close all forms and Open MainForm and press the button.
there will be delay on Showing Form1 since our array is very
big. but once shown, the listbox is already populated.

I could see yours working as you described, and with trepidation added it to my stuff
It all worked perfectly! I expected all sorts of trouble... but it was quite easy to follow and I get the idea how it works.
Stepping showed the sequence of events and that was quite useful.
I was able to slot in my FillList stuff.
Many thanks.
