[Help]Add Listbox Items per line[Solved]

This is sudden guys but I need the code for adding listbox items per line at textboxes or a text file.

It will be for the log

Wait, do you mean add each line from a textfile as new listbox entry, or write each listbox entry to a textfile?

Code:

dim content As String = ""
foreach item As string In listbox.Items
textbox.Items.Add(item)
content += item
next
if File.Exists("out.txt")
then
File.Delete("out.txt")
end if
File.WriteAllText("out.txt")

her is code. typed on mobile, first ever time i tried doing this :L

Don't need to delete the file, WriteAllText doesn't append text. I would just say:

Code:

IO.File.WriteAllLines("C:\VB Projects\out.txt", ListBox1.Items.Cast(Of String).ToArray)

And leave it at that

=) Nice ... Im gonna use this xD

PS: What change is coming?

Let's say in the textbox the content is

Code:

Content 1
Content 2
Content 3

then every line of it will appear in each item.

Code:

ListBox1.Items.AddRange(TextBox1.Lines)

Is that what you're after?

Edit: Jason answered it. Is that what ya want ?

Actually He did it in reverse..
but I don't need it as I already know it.

I was looking for adding some items on every line on a textbox or a text file..

I think it includes the "Enter" button..

Set Multiline property of Textbox to True via properties.

Or by code:

Code:

Textbox1.Multiline = True

This way you can use the Enter button !

...?

Sorry, I don't understand what you want, you keep changing your mind. Please give a decent explanation

I wasn't talking about you... It was from the other guy and I did a wrong grammar.. anyway,

the code works as you said... thanks for it..
I do also use this code that I found but more than codes than yours..

Code:

For Each Line As String In TextBox1.Lines
ListBox1.Items.Add(Line)
Next

Thanks..

Alright, marked as solved. No posting unless it's relevant and the thread is under a week old.

As for the code differences, addrange does pretty much the same thing as looping through the elements and adding them all, albeit tidier.
