Can u tell me which properties to be set for required field validator so as to accomplish the thing.....

ControlToValidate property,

<asp:ListBox ID="ListBox1" runat="server"></asp:ListBox> 
        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" 
            ErrorMessage="(required)" ControlToValidate="ListBox1"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

If you don't use "exit sub", it will continue until "End Sub"
but, at least, you can give a message to the user

If ListBox1.SelectedIndex < 0 Then   
      LbMsg.Text = "No Record is selected."         
      Exit Sub
 End If
