loop through a listbox question

i need to loop through a list box and get the value for each item.

but, i need to loop to x number and then do some thing else then start where i left off

but I cant "read the value" as I loop.

dim snval as string

For i = 0 To SCNCNT -1

snval = listbox1.index

For i As Integer = 0 To listbox1.Items.Count - 1
snval = listBox1.Items(i).ToString()
Next

If you want to get value from ListBox's item then you can write following statement.

Code Snippet

ListView1.Items.Item(INDEX).Text

If you want to do some task on particular item then you can do following code.

Code Snippet

For i As Integer = 0 To ListView1.Items.Count - 1

If ListView1.Items.Item(i).Text = "Your Condition" Then

Application.DoEvents()

End If

Here you can replace your code at Application.DoEvents.

And after finishing your task loop will continue from next element of ListBox1.

If your requirement is different, or if i don't underestand your que properly, or if i am wrongthen let me know.

Thank You.
