getting selecteditem text from listbox

kvb2.net

I'm trying to get the text from a listbox after the user makes a selection. The examples that I've seen indicate to use selecteditem.Text, but this does not work. this is a visual basic.net winapp, the listbox is populated from an access database. Any suggestions?

It all depends on how you are populating the listbox. I would need to see how you were doing that.
