Attaching an object to an already existing ListItem?

Question

In a ListView, how can I attach an object at any time to an already existing ListItem? (I know I can attach an object to a ListItem with AddItem, however I need to attach the object after the ListItem has been created).

You can access it through the TListItem.Data property. For example:

var
  ListItem: TListItem;
begin
  ListView1.AddItem('Item 1', nil);
  ...
  ListItem := ListView1.Items[0];
  ListItem.Data := Edit1;
  TEdit(ListItem.Data).Text := 'Updated text...';
end;
