C# – How to remove multiple selected items in ListBox

clistboxwinforms

My windows form contains two listboxes. Listbox1 contains some items in it and listbox2 is empty. When I press a button on the form, then multiple selected items from listbox1 should be removed from Listbox1 and copied to Listbox2.

I tried with foreach loop on listbox1.SelectedItems but it removes only 1 item from list.

Anyone has solution or code for this?

You could do all in a single loop. You should use a simple for and loop backwards on SelectedIndices:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) 
{ 
    for(int x = listBox1.SelectedIndices.Count - 1; x>= 0; x--)
    { 
        int idx = listBox1.SelectedIndices[x];
        listBox2.Items.Add(listBox1.Items[idx]); 
        listBox1.Items.RemoveAt(idx);
    } 
}
