Yes I ssw it, but there are more explained things in common....there are only one short work.....who work more with c# can solve it

Sorry I don't understand your comment. If you follow that link and look at the Items property you will even find some sample code that will do what you want. All it takes is a little effort.

Yeah. My english is not so good. I looked in that link but i didn't solve the problem. I just want the data in the list box to save in a any variable and then this variable to equal with another listbox...( I think you didn't understand me again )!

Yes, I understand you perfectly, go and read the section I refer to in the message above. It explains how to add items to a listbox and how to extract them, including sample code.

yes ye Richard I am still on it. I have a listbox with items, now this items I have to sort and so sorted to put in another listbox...! I have problem to implement in a code I have idea....!

Why do you keep repeating the same question rather than reading the documentation for the ListBox control? It is really quite clearly written and probably available in your own language.

that should be..."string[] dataFromFile = lstQiftet.Items.Cast<string>().ToArray();"......

THnx Richard
