I saw it,But I want to add ALL my combobox items to richtextbox OR add all of them to:
My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\servers\Servers.inf"
How I can do it?

The Items collection contains ALL of the items already so there is nothing to show you. All you need to do is write a simple loop to add the items to your richtextbox. What exactly is the problem?

The simple loop is

For Each i as Object in combobox1.Items
     'do something with i.ToString()
Next

You can either append the text to your richtext box or put it straight out to the file. There are many examples of file handling if you google e.g. http://www.techrepublic.com/article/read-and-write-text-files-with-visual-basic-net/[^]

There are also many tutorials on using comboboxes e.g. http://www.tutorialspoint.com/vb.net/vb.net_combobox.htm[^]
