The ListControl class provides implementations of common elements for the ListBox and ComboBox controls.
The following properties are of primary concern to users of a data-bound ListBox or ComboBox: DataSource, DisplayMember, SelectedValue, and ValueMember properties.
The following code example is a complete application that shows how you can use DataSource, DisplayMember, ValueMember, and SelectedValue members of the ListControl class as implemented by the ListBox class. The example loads an ArrayList and the list box. When the user selects an item in the list box, the selected value is used to return the data associated with the selected item.
