you can try this:
VB Code:
  1. Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  2.         CheckedListBox1.Items.Add("hello", CheckState.Checked)
  3.         CheckedListBox1.Items.Add("goodbye", CheckState.Checked)
  4.  
  5.     End Sub
  6.  
  7.     Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
  8.         Dim emails As New ArrayList
  9.         emails.AddRange(CheckedListBox1.CheckedItems)
  10.         For Each s As String In emails
  11.             Console.WriteLine(s)
  12.  
  13.         Next
  14.     End Sub
try that out by creating a new project, add a checked list box and abutton to the blank form and run it. that should give you an idea of how to do that.
