Hi,

You can either use ListBox.Sort Method.

Sort forces the collection to add each item back to itself if the Sorted property is true. Each item is then inserted into the correct position.

Or you can simply add Items of First ListBox into List or ArrayList then Sort that List as per your requirement and then add items of that List into your Second ListBox.

I hope this will help you.

You can use LINQ query and sort them and if you have custom sorting then you can apply your logic for that.

hi Masoud

ArrayList ListBoxArray = new ArrayList();           //add the Items to ArrayList without sort         for (int i = 0; i < CarNameListBox.Items.Count; i++ )         {             ListBoxArray.Add(CarNameListBox.Items[i].Value);         }             // Clear the Data and add soterd Items to the List Box         CarNameListBox.Items.Clear();           ListBoxArray.Sort();         CarNameListBox.DataSource = ListBoxArray;         CarNameListBox.DataBind();

Sorting a list of items in a list box

ArrayList q = new ArrayList();

foreach (object o in listBox4.Items) q.Add(o);

}
q.Sort();
listBox5.Items.Clear();

foreach(object o in q)
{ listBox5.Items.Add(o);

}

You can use the LINQ language (in C#) and sort them. After all the items are an array of objects (or particularly they are simply List) so that you can convert them to these types and run a .Sort() function on them. Did you try that out?
