I would use the GetSelectedIndices() method to get the indexes of the

selected items, and then iterate through the returned array using the

indexes with the Items property, something like the following:



Dim selectedindexes() As Integer = Me.ListBox1.GetSelectedIndices()



Dim curritem As ListItem



For Each index As Integer In selectedindexes



curritem = Me.ListBox1.Items(index)



Response.Write(curritem.Value)



Response.Write(curritem.Text)



Next





As long as you don't add any items client-side, this should work (I admit I

didn't try it out, but it seems simple enough). Good Luck!
