what is wrong?

Here are a few to start with:
1. Use Integer (32-bit) instead of Long (64-bit)
2. Add <StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential> to LVITEM
3. Add <MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)> to pszText
4. Change "...Declare Auto...User32..." to "Declare Ansi...User32.dll..."
5. The puColumns member of LVITEM should be an array
6. The last three members of LVITEM are only supported
on XP. If you're going to use them why bother with ANSI?
Switch to Unicode (or remove them if you're not using them).
