How can I get the name of a certain item in a listbox;

lets say that we have a for loop
for(int i=0; i< this.tr_lst.Items.Count;i++) \\ i is the index
then i want to make a switch statement
switch (the name of the item which has the index i)

I like a foreach loop for this sort of thing:

foreach (ListItem item in tr_list.Items) {
    string name = item.Text;
    ...
}

unless you really need access to the index. If so, then I think

string name = tr_list.Items[i].Text

would do it.
