How do I move all items in a listbox to another listbox

[kent]

Hi All,

On my form, I have 2 listboxes that get populated with the correct items.
I have 4 buttons between the 2 boxes. The first 2 buttons are used to move
the selected item
back and forth between the boxes. That works fine.

The last 2 are used to move all the listbox items (whether they're selected
or not) that are in 1 box over to the other box.
After the move, I want the other box to be empty. I am calling clear() and
that works fine.
I am having trouble here and need help.

I have tried things like:
listbox1.items. addRange(listbo x2.items)
listbox2.items. clear()

I have tried a couple of other things with no success.
I'm sort of a newbie, but I should be able to do this and I'm probably
making it much harder than it has to be.
Any help on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

Try something list this (untested)

foreach(Listite m li in lstSrc)
{
lstDest.Items.A dd( new ListItem(li.Tex t,Li.Value));
lstDest.Items.R emove(li);
}
