Copy TStringList to TListBox

Hello all,

I have a TStringList containing some strings, with associated objects.
I wish to copy this list to a TListBox, so that the Listbox contains
a separate copy of the Stringlist items (including the objects).
I use Assign, but it seems that this only assigns pointers to the original
objects in the Stringlist instead of copying them to new objects:

ListBox1.Clear;
ListBox1.Items.Assign(StringList1);
StringList1.Clear; //this changes >=1 objects in ListBox1!

(The objects contain a record with string fields, I can watch them in the
debugger. One of the strings of at least one of the objects changes.)
Am I missing something basic?



Regards,
Arjan
