If you look in VB's Object browser, you'll see that the Listindex property is of type Integer.
Thus the limit is the integer limit - 32767 (Making it 32768 possible items in a listbox)

Agreed, ran a test on this, to add a new item into a listbox iteratively, exiting either when an error was reached or when the list count was greater than 32767. Error generated @ 32767. It'll let you keep adding, but you can't get at any of the items, and it throws your count way out of whack. (ListCount starts returning negative numbers)
