How to insert a record into a listview control of asp.net using c#?

I'm using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition and I need your assistance since I'm new to it. I want to insert a record into my listview control of my asp.net webpage using c# or vb.net codes. Here's how it works, if I have four textboxes and I'm going to fill each textboxes so I click a command button I want to insert the value of each textboxes into the listview control. Please guide on how to do this. Thank you and I appreciate your help.

What you are looking for is Data Binding, there is a myriad of Exemple to start form, here some exemples

Update :

Here some vb.net code to help you, I did not test it, it's just to show you the principle. 

private Class person
  public FirstName as string
  public LastName as string
  public Address as string
end class

So you could do something like this in your button Click event

Protected Sub Add_Click(ByVal sender As Object, 
                        ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Add.Click
    'create the new object
    dim newPerson as person = new person 
    newPerson.FirstName = FirstNameTextBox.text
    newPerson.LastName = LastNameTextBox.text 
    newPerson.Address  = AddressTextBox.text  

    'Get or create a list
    dim personList As List(Of person) = Session("personList")
    if personList is nothing then
        personList = new List(Of person)
    end if

    'add it to a list and save
    personList.Add(newPerson )
    Session("personList") = personList 

    'Bind the list
    personListView.DataSource = personList 
    personListView.Databind()

end sub
