This is my code:

foreach(var item in listBox1.Items)
{
    string i = item.ToString();
    if (item.ToString()== "myItem")
    {
        label1.Text = i.ToString(); // how to get the founded item index?
        break; 
    }    
}

There is a loop in a ListBox for finding a specific item. After finding that item I want to know what is the index of that item in the ListBox?

Try listBox1.Items.IndexOf(item) – user1275011 Mar 02 '16 at 16:46
The easiest is to use `for` instead of `foreach` and check `listBox1.Items` value by index. As soon as you find item you search for you have index at your will. – Sinatr Mar 02 '16 at 16:46
