`Sender`		Object generating the event notification. It must be cast to the TCustomListView type to access properties or methods specific to the list view control.
`Item1`		First list item for the comparison.
`Item2`		Second list item for the comparison.
`Data`		Contains an Integer value indicating where the items or their data is used in the comparison. The value is normally 0 when signalled, indicating that the list items are used.
`Compare`		Indicates the relative order for the list items. Negative values indicate Item1 occurs first in the sort order. Positive values indicates Item2 occurs first in the sort order. Zero (0) indicates the list items have the same value.
