Body
copied!<p>I have a win form which has a <code>ListBox</code>. I want to create dynamically a <code>DataTable</code> (till now I only declared some columns - you can see in the code - that I later want to use to link the <code>DataTable</code> to an existing empty <code>DataBase</code>) but don't know how to link it to the <code>Listbox</code> in order to "take" the 4 elements from it: <code>event_time , event_filename , event_name , event_fullpath</code>. Pls Help,</p> <p>Part of my code till now is:</p> <pre><code> private delegate void AppendListHandler(string event_filename, String event_name, String event_fullpath); private void AppendText(string event_filename, String event_name, String event_fullpath) { if (lstResultLog.InvokeRequired) lstResultLog.Invoke(new AppendListHandler(AppendText), new object[] { event_filename, event_name, event_fullpath }); else { DateTime event_time = DateTime.Now; //String event_duration = event_time.ToString("HH:mm"); lstResultLog.Items.Add(event_time + event_filename + event_name + event_fullpath); } DataTable table = new DataTable("tbl_Event"); table.Columns.Add("event_duration"); table.Columns.Add("event_name"); table.Columns.Add("event_filename"); table.Columns.Add("event_fullpath"); table = (DataTable)lstResultLog.DataSource; } </code></pre> <p><code>lstResultLog</code> is the name of the ListBox, all the fields from the ListBox have the exact name as in the declared DataTable, and as the DataBase.</p>

Querying!
