Default How do I add items to listbox during runtime?

I have a listbox that has expense names in it. As time goes on other expenses
occur. I want to be able to add the names without having to open a seperate
table, enter the data, close the table, then go to the form with the list or
combobox. I wnat to just type it in and have it automatically add to the list
to be selected again later.

Why not just put a textbox on the form with an AddNew button next to
it? Then you can type it there, click the button and requery the
listbox.

You're not going to enter data into a listbox, it doesn't work that
way.
