OK, I've discovered the collection editor, and now know how to use it, 
but when I click the new button in the collection editor for a list 
control, it pops up an error message stating that the list needs to be 
created with the wx.LC_REPORT flag, and I have no idea how to accomplish 
that.

Could someone please enlighten me?

Thanks, Ray Parrish
