You can use the properties and methods of this class to perform a variety of tasks with the collection. The Contains method enables you to determine whether an item from the ListBox.ObjectCollection class is a member of the ListBox.SelectedObjectCollection. Once you know that the item is located within the collection, you can use the IndexOf method to determine where a specific item within the ListBox.ObjectCollection for the ListBox is stored within the ListBox.SelectedObjectCollection.
