Code: Select all

    Function GetItemByID(ByVal no As Integer)
        Dim Item As String = ListBox1.Items(no - 1) 'Declares string item which is equal to item on no place in listbox (since index starts from 0 not from 1, no must be substracted by 1)'
        Return Item 'Returns Text on no place'
    End Function

calling:

Code: Select all

Textbox1.text = GetItemByID(12)

I tired that and it says that it is not a valid index :( I also tried playing round with it and no matter what way I changed it + - whatever allways was not a valid index

Try

Code: Select all

Dim Item As String = ListBox1.Items(no - 1).ToString

it is small stupid thing xD easily change it to

Code: Select all

dim str As string =listview1.items(number between 0 and itemcount-1 ).TEXT

edit: my bad didn't see it is listBOX...

Code: Select all

For i as integer =0 to listbox1.items.count - 1
if listbox1.items(i) = 34 then msgbox(i.tostring)
next
