One of my favorite new techniques is to use an object array as a hidden column
in a listbox array. In the old days (before v15 r something or the other) I
often had array based list boxes which had a bunch of hidden columns to store
data that I wanted to do something with when the row was selected. Now I only
need a single hidden column. Each element of the object array can store a
wealth of additional information about the row. And it is really easy to extend
what is stored in the object in the future. No more adding additional columns
and making sure they are updated in all the right places. So nice!
P.S. Having such an array is a bit like what is requested here, but on a
listbox row level:
