[RESOLVED] How can I transfer a listbox selected item to a textbox

[tommygrayson]

Hi all!

I need help getting the value of a selected listbox and transfer it to a textbox.text. I tried everything but seems that I am only getting frustrated.

There's something definitely wrong with my code:

Will you guys help me out?

Imports System.Web.Mail
 
Public Class WebForm1
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected WithEvents ListBox1 As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListBox
    Protected WithEvents ListBox2 As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListBox
    Protected WithEvents ListBox3 As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListBox
