Private Sub ChangeItem(ByVal SelectedItem As Integer, ByVal NewItem As String)
 
        'NewItem =The new value you want to add
        'SelectedItem =Index of the value you want to change
 
        Me.ListBox1.Items.RemoveAt(SelectedItem)
        Me.ListBox1.Items.Insert(SelectedItem, NewItem)
 
    End Sub

use it like this :

ChangeItem(Me.ListBox1.SelectedIndex, Me.TextBox1.Text)

Make sure that there is an item selected . I left out error handling for you .

What do you mean it didn't work ? any error ?

[Ezpz]

ChangeItem(Me.ListBox1.SelectedIndex, Me.TextBox1.Text)

on that line the change item bit was underlined as exception error :/

and the other bit of code just didnt do anything no build errors or nothing, but i presume thats down to the line above not working :/ so i removed

Me.ListBox1.Items.Insert(SelectedItem, NewItem)

to see if i could remove the value in list box but still it wouldnt do nothing..

i checked to make sure it was assigned to correct button and it was :/.

Show me how did you use it in your code ?

[Ezpz]

Private Sub ChangeItem(ByVal SelectedItem As Integer, ByVal NewItem As String)

'NewItem =The new value you want to add
'SelectedItem =Index of the value you want to change

Me.ListBox1.Items.RemoveAt(SelectedItem)
ChangeItem(Me.ListBox1.SelectedIndex, Me.TextBox1.Text)
Me.ListBox1.Items.Insert(SelectedItem, NewItem)

End Sub

See here how you should use it . It's VB.NET 2003 project .
