Hi, I have a list box, lstjurisdictions, and when the form loads it loads records from a database. When I select one of the items in the list box, I would like the label of a Text box to change instantly. When I use the following code: private void lstJursdictions_SelectedIndexChanged( object sender, EventArgs e) { string curItem = lstJurisdictions.SelectedItem.ToString(); textBox3.Text = curItem; } All I get is the message: System.Data.DataRowView as a label on the TextBox. How can I get the Name of the label to change dynamically as the slected item from the list box changes? Thank you!

GF, ((ListBoxItem)lstJurisdictions.SelectedItem).Conent.ToString(); or lstJurisdictions.SelectedItem.Text. one of them should give you display value.

Thank you Amit and Ashutosh for your replies. Amit, I tried your solution, and it almost worked, it returned the number of the item in the column, not the name. So the result was a number, not the text. So very close, thank you! Ashutosh, your second solution was the same result as mine, but when I looked at your first, I was able to get it working with this re write of the code: string temp = lstJurisdictions.GetItemText(lstJurisdictions.SelectedItem); textBox3.Text = temp; Thank you again for the help! :) George
