\section{\class{wxControlWithItems}}\label{wxcontrolwithitems}
This class is an abstract base class for some wxWidgets controls which contain
-several items, such as \helpref{wxListBox}{wxlistbox} and
-\helpref{wxCheckListBox}{wxchecklistbox} derived from it,
+several items, such as \helpref{wxListBox}{wxlistbox} and
+\helpref{wxCheckListBox}{wxchecklistbox} derived from it,
\helpref{wxChoice}{wxchoice} and \helpref{wxComboBox}{wxcombobox}.
It defines the methods for accessing the controls items and although each of
the derived classes implements them differently, they still all conform to the
same interface.

+The items in a wxControlWithItems have (non-empty) string labels and,
optionally, client data associated with them. Client data may be of two
different kinds: either simple untyped ({\tt void *}) pointers which are simply
stored by the control but not used in any way by it, or typed pointers
({\tt wxClientData *}) which are owned by the control meaning that the typed

data of the same type (typed or untyped), if any. This type is determined by
<wx/ctrlsub.h> but usually never included directly

+
+When the control is sorted (e.g. has {\tt wxLB\_SORT} or {\tt wxCB\_SORT} style)
