Adding data to wxlistbox

Question

How do I add data to an item in a wxlistbox control?

Lets say I have a record of items, I wanna add their id from the database as the data of the item:

Label   Data
--------------
Shoes   1
Watch   2
Bags    3

You can either add the items when you create the list, or append them later. Items are added as a list of strings. The following example shows items being added each way.

import wx

app = wx.App()
frame = wx.Frame(parent=None, id=-1, title = "Test List Box",size=(200,300) )
panel = wx.Panel(frame)

lb = wx.ListBox(panel,-1,(20,20),(100,200),["Shoes  1","Watch  2"])
lb.InsertItems(["Bags    3","Hats     5"],2)

frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()
