How to store items in an array ?

Hi,
In windows applications,I am using listview to store items.I am calling the items from ini file.In the form load itself,the items are displayed in listview.but they are overriding means when second item is going to display,first items is replaced with second item.So,I thought the items can be stored in an array.If it is correct,tell me how to store in an array

string[] myItems = new string[]
             {
                textBox2.Text,
                DateTime.Now.ToString(),
                textBox1.Text
           };
            ListViewItem lvi = new ListViewItem(myItems);
            listView1.Items.Add(lvi);
so i want to store items in an array before adding to listview.
