Getting CheckBoxList Item values

Question

I have a CheckBoxList which I\'m populating with data. When I attempt to retrieve the checked items from the list I can only grab the item ordinal, I cannot get the value.

Answer 1

Try to use this :

 private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        for (int i = 0; i < chBoxListTables.Items.Count; i++)
            if (chBoxListTables.GetItemCheckState(i) == CheckState.Checked)
            {
               txtBx.text += chBoxListTables.Items[i].ToString() + " \n"; 

            }
    }

Answer 2

This ended up being quite simple. chBoxListTables.Item[i] is a string value, and an explicit convert allowed it to be loaded into a variable. The following code works:

private void btnGO_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < chBoxListTables.Items.Count; i++)
    {
          if (chBoxListTables.GetItemChecked(i))
        {
            string str = (string)chBoxListTables.Items[i];
            MessageBox.Show(str);
        }
    }
}
