I would like to get the size of each item in a list box and display it.

Update:

Im adding files to the listbox with a openfiledialog. I want to get the size of all the files that is added to the listbox.

Sorry for not being this elaborate first time around.

What do you mean by size (bytes, width) ?

Well, if you are waiting for permission, consider it given.
If, on the other hand you want us to help you, then perhaps we need a little bit more information on what you are trying to achieve - what you gave us is a bit vague.
Use the "Improve question" widget to edit your question and provide better information.

By size, do you mean length? And if so that'd mean the listbox contains a collection of strings. In that case, just use the Length property on each string.

[Update]

In response to your updated question. Use FileInfo on each path-string and then get the Length property. More info here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.fileinfo.length.aspx[^]
