Hi

I have 2 ListBoxes/DropDown with Checkboxes. In one ListBox/DropDowm i will be listing all Departments . Between 2 Boxes there will be 2 arrows (Left & Right) . When user ticks checkboxes then all those selected Department from Left Box & select right arrow that Department's should get moved in the Right box & vice-versa using C# . This part is finished .

Now i want all those Departments which are in Right Side Box , i want then to assign Deptt Head . Then i want them to be saved . How best it can be done.

Thanks

create a text box and ask the user to enter or else if you have a specific list and want the user to select from the same create a drop down and ask the user to select inside the if loop

You mean that you want to select each and every item individually in the right side listbox and want to assign them dept head individually but you didn't tell me in what way you want to assign dept head to the selected item in the listbox. If that is the way you want to do then you can do it based on the selection made in the listbox using the following syntax.

for(int i = 0; i < listBox1.Items.Count; i++)
{
if (list1.Items[0].Selected == true)
{
///assign your dept head here
}

elseif (list1.Items[1].Selected)
{
///assign your dept head here
}

elseif (list1.Items[2].Selected)
{
///assign your dept head here
}
else
{
}
}

use foreach loop as follows and do as you like inside the loop

foreach(object obj in listBox1.Items)
{
//do whatever you want here
}

or else

You can save the items in the list box as follows:
string [] str= new string[10];
int i = 0;
foreach(String item in listBox1.Items)
{
str[i] = listBox1.Item[i];
i++;
}

And now you have all your listbox1 strings in your str array.
