From what I can make out your result data is stored in a single string. you will need to split the string into an array, or loop your webclient call to fetch more results.
Hi, use this code

private void textBox_Leave(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    listBox1.Items.Add(((TextBox)sender).Text);
}
try using this code :
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)  
{  
      string url = "http://www.presscouncil.or.th/th2/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=230&Itemid=100084";  
      string result = null;  
      try  
      {  
           WebClient client = new WebClient();  
           result = client.DownloadString(url); 
           string[] lines = result.Split(new string[]{"\n"},StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntires);
           foreach(string line in lines)
           { 
                 listBox1.Items.Add(line);  
           }
      }  
      catch (Exception ex)  
      {  
          // handle error  
          MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);  
      }
}

I can understand the comment accepted.
The assist of mkobrin says in different words what I said, so I am surprised that gets an assist but my comment doesn't.

Of what use is the comment by samirbhogayta in resolving your problem?
I agree with Andy.. :)
