Save and display listbox / comboBox items in Data Structure

Asked by MonteCristo33 in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, VB Controls, Visual Studio .NET 2005

Hi,

I'm trying to save a collection of controls in a Data Structure, but I'm having a problem with listboxes and combo boxes. What would be the correct code for grabbing a selected item, saving it to file using a Data Structure and then displaying it again when that file is open again?
<VBFixedString(30)> Public Text3 As String
and
MD.Text3
are data items I use to save the contents of the listbox.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers
