c# How to make that selected item from listbox will be shown in label?

Question

So I have a question, where to put that code in Windows Forms that it would be refreshed every time I select other item in listbox? I tried to put in listBox1, but it crash my whole program, I tried to put it in public Form2() but it show just first selected item in label4, and do not refresh after I select other item in listBox1. Any solutions?

    var selected = listBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();
    label4.Text = selected;

Answer 1

you need to double click in the designer on the events tab for the ListBox1 control to have it automatically create the SelectedIndexChanged just find that SelectedIndexChanged and double click it

inside the event put the following code

private void listBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    var selected = listBox1.GetItemText(listBox1.SelectedValue);
    label4.Text = selected; 
}
