how to check if directories exists against listbox items

Hi All,

i was wondering if anyone could assist. i have a form with 2 listbox, that allows user to enter in a directory path that is then populated in to the listbox1. I have a button on the form that i want to be able to press which cycle through the listbox items and checks if the directory exists.

i was thinking it would be something along the lines of :

For Each something In listbox1

if system.io.file.exist(somethinghere2) = false then
      'in second listbox display missing directory
    listbox2.item.add("does not exist " & somethinghere2)
     else
        'if the directory does exist
       'do nothing
end if

   Next

this is for purpose to help me with my job, so i dont have to manually check if users have deleted directories overnite.... im not much of a programmer but any help would be great.
