Sergey,

You are correct. My list now populates correctly without errors and it was so easy to do (once you know how). I just wish that the online documentation could have at least mentioned the NewItemID property and/or give an example of how to "omit nItemID".

Thanks,

Mike.

myList.AddListItem(cField1)
>myList.AddListItem( cField2, myList.NewItemID, 2 )
