Changing ListBox Text

I have a listbox with, say 3 items (strings). I select one of those strings and edit it and try to use the edited string to do "stuff". But when I try to do this, the function that tries to do "stuff" seems to use the original string. If I don't do the drop down and just type in some string and use it, then the function uses the string I typed in. How can I code this so that when I do a drop down and pick a string from the list and edit it, I am using the edited string?
