Hi Balureddy, Another way... using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace WindowsFormsApplication1 { public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { listBox1.Items.Add("Raj"); listBox1.Items.Add("Raj"); listBox1.Items.Add("Raju"); listBox1.Items.Add("Rahul"); listBox1.Items.Add("Harry"); listBox1.Items.Add("Ben"); listBox1.Items.Add("Ian"); } private void btn_right_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (listBox2.Items.Contains(listBox1.SelectedItem) == true) { MessageBox.Show("Item Exits"); } else { listBox2.Items.Add(listBox1.SelectedItem); int i = 0; i = listBox1.SelectedIndex; listBox1.Items.RemoveAt(i); } } private void btnleft_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { listBox1.Items.Add(listBox2.SelectedItem); int i = 0; i = listBox2.SelectedIndex; listBox2.Items.RemoveAt(i); } } } Thanks If this post helps you mark it as answer
