Plz I need help on how to write the code for replacing an Item in a listbox by double click event in vb.net.
I only know about using this code to add
ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text)
TextBox1.Text = ""
item from textbox to listbox
But I need the to know how to write the code for replacing an item when the item is double click.
Thank you.

Since you didn't supply any code for us to help you with, I'll supply this much and you should be able to produce something off of it. Then if you get stuck, submit the code you have and we can help you better.

  Private Sub ListBox1_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.DoubleClick
        ListBox1.Items(ListBox1.SelectedIndex) = "I'm Changed!"
    End Sub

Please enclose any code you submit inside the code tags this can be easily done by hilighting the code segment and clicking the <> on the toolbar

Opps... I missed!!!

Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim just(4, 2) As Integer
Dim row As Integer
Dim col As Integer
Dim vac As String()
vac = New String(just.GetUpperBound(0)) {}

ListBox1.Items.Clear()
For row = 0 To 4
For col = 0 To 2
'I am trying to create an argument here which will be if row is double click the user can 'change the status of the row such as Make a reservation or cancel a reservation. 'Otherwise the row is vacant. 
' I got stuck in doing it. Because I can only make the status constant here. Nothing change

vac(row) = "Vacant"


ListBox1.Items.Add(row & " " & col & " " & vac(row.ToString) & " ")

Next

Next



End Sub 

Thank you guys!
Here is what I am trying to do in a simple form.
To enable a user to change the status of the row either vacant or reserved by double clicking event.
any suggestion will be highly appreciated. you dont need to follow what I did but can suggestion to me how to go about doing.

Try adding this, upon double click it stores the selecteditem to the string currItem and then checks to see if that string ends with the string "vacant ". If so, then we know that it needs to be changed to "reserved" so we use SubString to get all but the word vacant and append the word "reserved", if "vacant" does not appear then we use the same method to remove "reserved" and append "vacant".

So you end up with a sort of toggle, each double-click switches to the opposite setting.

    Private Sub ListBox1_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.DoubleClick
        Dim currItem As String = ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString
        If currItem.ToLower.EndsWith("vacant ") Then
            ListBox1.Items(ListBox1.SelectedIndex) = currItem.ToString.Substring(0, currItem.Length - 7) & "Reserved "
        Else
            ListBox1.Items(ListBox1.SelectedIndex) = currItem.ToString.Substring(0, currItem.Length - 9) & "Vacant "
        End If
    End Sub
