ASP.NET: Move Items from One ListBox to Another ListBox using C#/VB.NET

Hi friends,in this article i will explain about ASP.NET Move Items from One ListBox to Another ListBox.
I already explained in the previous articles about How to Bind Nested Gridview from Database in asp.net with C#/VB.NET,Marquee tag or How to Scroll Text From left to right or How to Move the Text in HTML,C#/VB.NET:Save the generated pdf directly to the server directory folder without user prompt in ASP.NET and JQuery:How to Display Current Date and Time on Webpage using ASP.NET.
In ASP.NET write the following code.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
<title>Listbox Sample</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form2" runat="server">
<div>
<table align="center">
<tr>
<td align="center" >
<b>Courses</b>
</td>
<td></td>
<td>
<b>Selected Courses</b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<asp:ListBox ID="lstCourses" runat="server"  Height="175px" Width="120px" SelectionMode="Multiple">
<asp:listitem Value="0">Asp.Net</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem Value="1">C#.Net</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem Value="2">VB.Net</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem Value="3">JavaScript</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem Value="4">Ajax</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem Value="5">JQuery</asp:listitem>
</asp:ListBox>
</td>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<asp:Button ID="btnMoveRight" runat="server" Text=">" Width="45px" onclick="btnMoveRight_Click" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<asp:Button ID="btnMoveLeft" runat="server" Text="<" Width="45px" onclick="btnMoveLeft_Click" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<asp:ListBox ID="lstSelected" runat="server" Height="175px" Width="120px"  SelectionMode="Multiple">

</asp:ListBox>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
<asp:Label ID="lbltxt" runat="server" ForeColor="Red"></asp:Label>
    <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Submit"
        onclick="btnSubmit_Click" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

    for (int i = 0; i < lstSelected.Items.Count; i++)
    {
         s=s+ lstSelected.Items[i].ToString();
    }
 
}

}

In VB.NET:

Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls
Imports System.Collections

Partial Public Class ListBox
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
    Private student_id As Integer = 9
    Private arraylist1 As New ArrayList()
    Private arraylist2 As New ArrayList()
    Protected Sub btnMoveRight_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        lbltxt.Visible = False
        If lstCourses.SelectedIndex >= 0 Then
            For i As Integer = 0 To lstCourses.Items.Count - 1
                If lstCourses.Items(i).Selected Then
                    If Not arraylist1.Contains(lstCourses.Items(i)) Then
                        arraylist1.Add(lstCourses.Items(i))
                    End If
                End If
            Next
            For i As Integer = 0 To arraylist1.Count - 1
                If Not lstSelected.Items.Contains(DirectCast(arraylist1(i), ListItem)) Then
                    lstSelected.Items.Add(DirectCast(arraylist1(i), ListItem))
                End If
                lstCourses.Items.Remove(DirectCast(arraylist1(i), ListItem))
            Next
            lstSelected.SelectedIndex = -1
        Else
            lbltxt.Visible = True
            lbltxt.Text = "Please select atleast one in lstCourses to move"
        End If
    End Sub
    Protected Sub btnMoveLeft_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        lbltxt.Visible = False
        If lstSelected.SelectedIndex >= 0 Then
            For i As Integer = 0 To lstSelected.Items.Count - 1
                If lstSelected.Items(i).Selected Then
                    If Not arraylist2.Contains(lstSelected.Items(i)) Then
                        arraylist2.Add(lstSelected.Items(i))
                    End If
                End If
            Next
            For i As Integer = 0 To arraylist2.Count - 1
                If Not lstCourses.Items.Contains(DirectCast(arraylist2(i), ListItem)) Then
                    lstCourses.Items.Add(DirectCast(arraylist2(i), ListItem))
                End If
                lstSelected.Items.Remove(DirectCast(arraylist2(i), ListItem))
            Next
            lstCourses.SelectedIndex = -1
        Else
            lbltxt.Visible = True
            lbltxt.Text = "Please select atleast one in lstSelected to move"
        End If
    End Sub
    Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim s As String = String.Empty
        For i As Integer = 0 To lstSelected.Items.Count - 1
            s = s & lstSelected.Items(i).ToString()
        Next

    End Sub

End Class


 The output of the above program as shown in the below figure.when you select the item in left side ListBox and Click on '>' button then your selected item like JavaScript will move to right side ListBox and vice versa.
