Aren't you doing that backwards? Think of the problem without using any controls.

Use a List to hold all your objects. Create a custom class, if you need to. Then all you need to do is loop through that list for whatever you're looking for.

Code 
Dim item as ListviewItem

 for each item in Listview1.Items

If (item.SubItems(0).Text).ToString.Equals("name of the item you want to look for") Then  

      MsgBox("item exists")  

      Exit For

      End If  

      Next
