Adding items to the list box

A list box can be populated either at design time using the Visual Studio IDE or at runtime using code. To add items to the list box using the Visual Studio IDE, select the list box control in the designer and in the properties window click the Items property. It will show you an interface where you can enter the list of items to be added to the list box.

Alternatively, you can write code to add items to the list box. An item can be added to the list box using the Add() method from the Items collection of the ListBox object. Assume that we have made a list box to store the names of Fruits and that we have set the Name property of the list box to 'lbxFruits'. The following code can be used to add items to the list box.

lbxFruits.Items.Add("Banana")
lbxFruits.Items.Add("Mango")

Or if you want to add a series of items, you can use the AddRange() method of the Items collection

lbxFruits.Items.AddRange(New String() {
"Banana",
"Mango",
"Apple",
"Grapes",
"Lichie"
})
