Assigning list to ListBox

I am trying to assign the values I want to appear in a ListBox, but am
having no luck. With a ComboBox, I could create a semicolon-separated list,
set my RowSourceType to "ValueList" and assign my list to it. With the
ListBox, that seems to not be the case. Is it possible for me to do the
same in ListBox, though? I try it and I get that I cannot assign more than
255 bytes to a single row, yet I am merely trying to assign multiple rows.
Is the semicolon not the proper separator?

Since I am working in Access97, I prefer not to use Query-type controls in
my projects. It hides bugs and dependencies, as you cannot search them nor
does the compiler see them. My data is coming from an external source as it
is.

TIA,

The listbox behaves just like the combo box. Post an example of the list
you're using
