Browsing a ListBox

[benqazou]

Hey, I need to browse a multiselection ListBox, especially getting the Values of selected items. I filled it like this : lbox.DataSource = 'some datatable'; lbox.DisplayMember = "Col1"; lbox.ValueMember = "Col2"; The SelectionMode chose is : MultiSimple I need something like this foreach (item in the selected items) { Display its value.. etc } Thank you.

a ListBox has a lot of useful properties, some related to the current selection; I would not be surprised if the documentation would show some with names starting with Selected. Would you care to read up on them? :)

Hey, Of course I've done many research before asking here.. The problem i have is not with getting the collection of selectediems (lbox.SelectedItems and lbox.SelectedIndices..etc) but when trying to retrieve the Value associated to a selecteditem.. Thanks.. for not helping..:-D

if the ListBox.DataSource is a DataTable, isn't each item in the ListBox a DataRow? :doh:

Thank you. I found some help here : http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/20051130b.asp[^] In fact here is the code : foreach (DataRowView drv in lbox.SelectedItems) { //Display column Id MessageBox.Show(drv.Row["Id"].ToString()); }
