streamwriter and listbox

[Jonathan C]

i want to know how to do when the form is closed, the current contents of the listbox will be stored in the bookmarks textfile (called bookmarks.txt). If a file error occurs, display a messagebox specifying the error.

public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void btn_go_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            wBrowser.Navigate(tbx_website.Text);
        }

        private void btn_bookmark_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //Add the url to the listbox
            LBlist.Items.Add(tbx_website.Text);

            if (LBlist.Items.Count == 0)
            {
                btn_delete.Enabled = false;
            }
        }

        private void btn_delete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // The Delete button was clicked
            int i_delete = LBlist.SelectedIndex;
            
            try
            {
                // Remove the item in the List.
                LBlist.Items.RemoveAt(i_delete);

            }
            catch
            {
            }
        }

        private void listbox_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tbx_website.Text = LBlist.SelectedItem.ToString();     
        }

        private void wBrowser_Navigated(object sender, WebBrowserNavigatedEventArgs e)
        {
            tbx_website.Text = wBrowser.Url.ToString();
        }

        private void LBlist_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            btn_delete.Enabled = (LBlist.Items.Count > 0);
            
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            btn_delete.Enabled = false;
        }

        private void Form1_FormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)
        {
            StreamWriter sw_file;
            string s_bmfile = LBlist.Items.ToString();
            sw_file = new StreamWriter("bookmarks.txt");
            sw_file.Write(s_bmfile);
            sw_file.Close();
        }

Hello, i dont understand exatly that you ask but take a look here

private void listbox_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tbx_website.Text = listbox.SelectedItem.ToString();
        }

this up means on double click on all listbox, not in items, you can have no select any item and click whatever in listbox and event will be run, you will get problem ofc, anyway

so that you want is to create your own web browser?

private void listbox_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    tbx_website.Text = listbox.SelectedItem.ToString();
}

its tbx_website.Text = LBlist.SelectedItem.ToString(); instead of
listbox.SelectedItem.ToString();

if double click the selected item from the listbox it goes directly textbox then click the go button.

[Jonathan C]

the instruction says:
*A text file of bookmarks will be loaded into the listbox. If the text file does not exist, or an exception occurred, a messagebox will be used to display an error message.
*When the form is closed, the current contents of the listbox will be stored in the bookmarks textfile (called bookmarks.txt). If a file error occurs, display a messagebox specifying the error.

there is something wrong my listbox.
Everytime i opene the program the list i have is "System.IO.StreamReader".
and when i close it give warning: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
This warning doesn't pop if i bookmark(add) some website to my listbox
