Hello i have code:

private void listBox1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)
            {
                string selected = Path.GetFileName(lblist.IndexFromPoint(e.Location).ToString());
                foreach (ListBox i in lblist2.Items)
                {
                    if (selected == i.Name)
                    {
                        lblist2.SelectedIndex = i.SelectedIndex;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

My application has two listboxes. listbox1 shows me full file paths. listbox2 shows me only filenames.
On first i click the slected item.
I want to find on listbox2 the same string and sekect it as in listbox1 . I wrote this code, however i stuck and of course it doesn't work. I tried. Help.

 foreach (ListBox i in lblist2.Items)
                {
                    if (selected == i.Name)
                    {
                        lblist2.SelectedIndex = i.SelectedIndex;
                    }
                }

aha there is the mistake
it should be something along the lines,

foreach(listbox item var1 in Listbox1.Items)
{
get the selected index
}

if i am wrong , please do get the error message Visual Studio is reporting you

foreach(ListItem item in Listbox1.Items)
{
     if(it.Selected)
     {
          // Do something here
     }
}

Misspelled item, this should work

foreach(ListItem item in Listbox1.Items)
{
     if(item.Selected)
     {
          // Do something here
     }
}
