I have a listbox populated with several different items. The problem I am having though is how to I change a certain items text color in the list box and not effect all of the other items????

Use a listview instead.

ListViewItem item = listview1.Items[0];

item.BackColor = Color.Blue;
item.ForeColor = Color.Pink;


ListView's kick ListBox's butt!
