Deleting a Specific Item from multiple listboxes

Question

I'm trying to delete a specific item from multiple listBoxes. I've created a ContextMenuStrip which contains a Delete Button.

I can delete the listbox item by clicking a right click on the mouse and pressing the delete button on the ContextMenuStrip. But I would be happy to know if I can do it on multiple Listboxes.

This it the writing button code:

listBox1.Items.Add("Hello");

this it the delete button code:

listBox1.Items.Remove(listBox1.SelectedItem);
listBox1.Refresh();

`lst.items.Remove(lst.selectedIndex)` - something like that – T.S. Jul 15 '14 at 15:14 — T.S., Jul 15 '14 at 15:14

Before showing the contextMenu, you can set the tag property to the listbox you clicked:

contextMenuStrip1.Tag = listBox1;
contextMenuStrip1.Show();

Then, on the Opened event, cast to a ListBox and remove the item:

var lb = ((ListBox)contextMenuStrip1.Tag);
lb.Items.Remove(lb.SelectedItem);
