Random sort of listBox index?

[Zolomon]

Hello!

I am currently trying to implement an option to sort a listBox's (lbImages) items in a random way. Each item of the listBox represent a string, and I wish for these to occur, everytime it's called, in a new and random order.

How can I accomplish this?

Here is my current code, but I just can't get it to work right:

       private void cbxSort_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (cbxSort.Text == "Alphanumerical")
            {
                lbImages.Sorted = true;
            }
            else if (cbxSort.Text == "Random")
            {
                Random random = new Random();
                List<string> randomList = new List<string>();

                for (int i = 0; i < lbImages.Items.Count; i++)
                {
                    randomList.Add(lbImages.Items.IndexOf(i).ToString());
                }

                lbImages.Items.Clear();

                for (int i = randomList.Count; i > 0; i--)
                {                   
                    iNewRandomIndex = random.Next(0, randomList.Count - 1);                    
                    lbImages.Items.Add(randomList.IndexOf(i)); // Have a problem in this line
                    randomList.RemoveAt(iNewRandomIndex);
                    iLastRandomIndex = iNewRandomIndex;
                }
            }
        }

Private randomiser As New Random
 
Private Sub RandomiseListBox()
    Dim count As Integer = Me.ListBox1.Items.Count
    Dim item As Object
 
    For index As Integer = 0 To count - 2 Step 1
        item = Me.ListBox1.Items(Me.randomiser.Next(index, count))
        Me.ListBox1.Items.Remove(item)
        Me.ListBox1.Items.Insert(index, item)
    Next index
End Sub

D'oh! Here's the C# version:

private Random randomiser = new Random();

private void RandomiseListBox()
{
	int count = this.listBox1.Items.Count;
	object item;

	for (int index = 0; index <= count - 2; index++)
	{
		item = this.listBox1.Items[this.randomiser.Next(index, count)];
		this.listBox1.Items.Remove(item);
		this.listBox1.Items.Insert(index, item);
	}
}

Ah, thank you!

The problem is now solved.
