Try this

Dim j As Integer = 0
        While j <= Me.ListBox1.Items.Count - 1


            Dim i As Integer = 0

            For i = 0 To Me.ListBox2.Items.Count - 1
                If Me.ListBox1.Items(j) = Me.ListBox2.Items.Item(i) Then
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next

            If i = Me.ListBox2.Items.Count Then
                Me.ListBox2.Items.Add(Me.ListBox1.Items.Item(j))
                Me.ListBox1.Items.RemoveAt(j)
            Else
                j += 1
            End If

        End While

What if i want to remove all items from combo1??

Member Avatar for kingsonprisonic

Just use ComboBox1.Items.Clear()

Member Avatar for smudehelper

I see in your code that you use ListBox1 instead of ComboBox1

I replace that on my own and its working.. is that ok??

Member Avatar for kingsonprisonic

Oh sorry for that actually ListBox and ComboBox are like same...
