I would use the GetSelectedIndices() method to get the indexes of the
selected items, and then iterate through the returned array using the
indexes with the Items property, something like the following:

Dim selectedindexes() As Integer = Me.ListBox1.GetSelectedIndices()

Dim curritem As ListItem

For Each index As Integer In selectedindexes

curritem = Me.ListBox1.Items(index)

Response.Write(curritem.Value)

Response.Write(curritem.Text)

Next


As long as you don't add any items client-side, this should work (I admit I
didn't try it out, but it seems simple enough). Good Luck!
