Virtual,

The reason your items are shown in the reverse order you loaded them 
into is that Win32Lib uses a literal 0 on the LVM_INSERTITEM message 
sent to the list view.  This inserts the item at the beginning of the 
list.  The first item you inserted now becomes the second displayed and 
so on.  The only way around this is to code the SendMessage calls 
yourself, specifying the item index for insertion.  However, doing this 
will break the column sorting built into Win32Lib.  For an example of 
how you might do this, try my SQL4Less on the contributions page on the 
RDS web site.

Hope this helps.
