I am putting items into a ListView component.  I have a caption, the
first subitem holds a description, and the second subitem holds a cost.
How do I access the second subitem (cost) when I want to read it back.

Here is what I do to put the items into the ListView component.

procedure AddToListView(sStr1, sStr2 : String);
var  
   lstitmLocalItem : TListItem;
begin  
   lstitmLocalItem := frmMain.ListView1.Items.Insert(0);
   lstitmLocalItem.Caption := FormatDateTime('mm/dd/yy', Date);
   lstitmLocalItem.SubItems.Add(sStr1);
   lstitmLocalItem.SubItems.Add(sStr2);
end;

Thanks in advance.

The SubItems is a TStrings. You can access your subitems by using the
following statement:

TheSubItemString := TheListItem.SubItems[SubItemNumber];
