[RESOLVED] simple question...what am I missing

i presume you have changed the Listbox so that its selectionMode property is set to multiple (either Multisimple or MultiExtended)

Private Sub multiButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles multiButton.Click
 
        Me.resultLabel.Text = String.Empty
 
        If Me.namesListBox.SelectedItems.Count > 0 Then
            For Each itm As String In Me.namesListBox.SelectedItems
                Me.resultLabel.Text &= itm & Environment.NewLine
            Next
        End If
 
End Sub
