Multi-line list items on WinForms ListBox control?

Question

I have some strings that contain line breaks, and I would like to keep this formatting in each ListBox item that the strings are applied to.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

The ListBox in winforms doesn't support multiline/text wrapping. If you want that kind of behaviour you probably need to do a custom control or there may be a third party control.

There's a sample implementation at http://www.codeproject.com/articles/2695/an-editable-multi-line-listbox-for-net. It's old so there may be better implementations out there/at least you can see what's involved.
