What are you in search for?
Could you please rephrase your question, it's hardly understandable.

i need to search a list of names thet user puts in?
i need the listview box that contains the names to keep them in the box even after you close it?

You could store the ListBoxItems in the Properties.Settings. Will perhaps explain more tomorrow.
