C#

if (ListBox1.Items.Count > 0)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < ListBox1.Items.Count; i++)
    {
       if (ListBox1.Items[i].Selected)
       {
          string selectedItem = ListBox1.Items[i].Text;
          string selectedValue = ListBox1.Items[i].Value;
          //insert into array or something else...
       }
    }
}
