SYMPTOMS
========
If the LabelWrap property of the ListView control is set to FALSE, then the
width of the label is the correct width to hold the text of the ListView item.
However, the height of the label for each item is the same height as calculated
for the control if the LabelWrap property had been set TRUE. Consequently,
unused space underneath the text makes the label for each item much larger than
it needs to be.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be an issue in the Microsoft products listed at
the beginning of this article. Microsoft is researching this issue and will post
new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
1. Start a new project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default.
2. Place a ListView control on the form.
3. Add the following code to the Load event of Form1:
Private Sub Form_Load()
ListView1.LabelWrap = False
ListView1.ListItems.Add , , "This is an extremely very, very, very," _
& "very long line of text"
End Sub
4. Run the project by pressing the F5 key. Notice that the label is very wide
and tall because the FALSE Wrap property causes the label to be on one line.
