[02/03] Total in a listbox

[cfjess012]

I have 5 items in a listbox, and I want to have the total of those items saved to variable that I can use later?

How do I add those items up to a variable?

Dim total As Integer = 0
 
For Each item As Integer In myListBox.Items
    total += item
Next item
 
MessageBox.Show("Total = " & total)

Ok say I have 5 numbers
1
4
5
3
2

I want 15 to be stored as a variable in the form so I can use it with a DIFFERENT event procedure?
