Most of the times we do a for-loop to get all selected values or items of a ListBox. But Listbox has a method that can give all the selected items without a loop.

The method is GetSelectedIndices().

Here is an example. Say you have an ASP.NET ListBox control something like this.

 
<asp:ListBox ID="ListBox1" runat="server" SelectionMode="Multiple">
   <asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>3</asp:ListItem>
</asp:ListBox>
