Adding items

[Jorge Pampin]

Hello,

How to add item by code (c#). I cannot do it, the ListBox doesn't add the items this way:

ListBox_1.Items.Add(new ListBoxItems() {Text = "Item 1"});

Thansk!

Hi Jorge ,

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.

Query: Form the ListBox items from the code behind.

We have analyzed your query that you have added the items to the ListBox component in dynamically from the code behind. To add the multiple items to the ListBox component, initially need to declare the variable with List of ListBoxItems type. Then add the new data’s to this declared variable.

After initialization of new data’s to the items can be assigned to the ListBox component datasoure property and its corresponding field need to map.

We have achieved your requirement of add the new items to the ListBox components by refer the below code snippet.

[ASPX]

 

           <ej:ListBox ID="Listbox1" runat="server" Width="200px"></ej:ListBox>

 

[CS]Code Behind

                      

           protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

          {

            //initilize the List of ListBoxItems to the variable

            List<ListBoxItems> list = new List<ListBoxItems>();

            //then add the custom data's to the list of items.

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 1"});

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 2" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 3" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 4" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 5" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 6" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 7" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 8" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 9" });

            list.Add(new ListBoxItems() { Text = "Item 10" });

            //map the corresponding field

            this.Listbox1.DataTextField = "Text";

            //assign the collectiones to the datasource property.

            this.Listbox1.DataSource = list;

    }
