I get an item text using
SomeVar = CheckLB.GetItemText(.SelectedItem)

Now I want to manipulate "SomeVar" then move the new value back into the
item it was taken from. I can't seem to find the method to change the items
text.

Thanks for any assistance,
Kevin

Just use the Items collection and the appropriate index.

Dim selectedIndex As Integer
Dim selectedItemText As String
selectedIndex = Me.CheckedListBox1.SelectedIndex
selectedItemText = Me.CheckedListBox1.Items.Item(selectedIndex).ToString()
selectedItemText += " modified"
Me.CheckedListBox1.Items.Item(selectedIndex) = selectedItemText

\\\
With Me.CheckedListBox1
.Items(.SelectedIndex) = .GetItemText(.SelectedItem) & " (!)"
End With
///
