Basic LINQ expression for an ItemCollection

Question

I have an ItemCollection that I\'d like to query using LINQ. I tried the following (contrived) example:

var lItem =
    from item in lListBox.Items
    where Str         


        

Answer 1

You need to specify the type of "item"

var lItem =
    from object item in lListBox.Items
    where String.Compare(item.ToString(), "abc") == true
    select item;
