Value Property (ListToolItem)

Returns or sets the value of the ListToolItem.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property Value As Object
public object Value {get; set;}
Remarks

The list items that appear in a ListTool have a value and display a text string. The text and the value of the ListItem are often the same, but they do not have to be. This property specifies the ListItem's value.

Example
The following code demonstrates how to create a main menu bar and a typical 'File' menu that contains a file MRU list. The MRU list is created using a ListTool. Also shown is how to process a ToolClick event for the MRU List's ListTool.
