Removing All Checked Items

Hello, I have a slight problem. I'm trying to remove all the checked items in my CheckedListBox.
I started by doing CheckedListBox1.Items.Remove(CheckedListbox1.CheckedItems). That seemed like it would work, but it didn't. I soon discovered that CheckedListBox1.Items.Remove only works on the the strings of the individual items.

Is there a way to accomplish what I am trying to do?

Thanks for the help.

try this:

vb Code:

For x As Integer = CheckedListBox1.Items.Count - 1 To 0 Step -1
    If CheckedListBox1.CheckedIndices.Contains(x) Then CheckedListBox1.Items.RemoveAt(x)
Next

It worked very nicely, thank you.

Quick question: I don't quite understand the "To 0 Step -1" part of the code, I would think that the Items.Count part would return a positive number.

Thanks.

Instead of incrementing the counter (x) by one he is decreasing it by 1. So if you have 10 items in your CheckedListBox, it basically translates into: Starting from 9 go to 0 decreasing by 1 each time.

Oh, now I see, that makes sense. :)
