Something like this should work:

        For i As Integer = 0 To MyCheckedListBox.Items.Count - 1
            Dim found As Boolean = False
            For j As Integer = 0 To MyListBox.Items.Count - 1
                If MyListBox.Items(j).ToString = MyCheckedListBox.Items(i).ToString Then
                    found = True
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
            MyCheckedListBox.SetItemChecked(i, found)
        Next

Thanks Riverguy, whatever they are paying you is not enough.

However, I did have to change
MyListBox.Items(j).ToString = MyCheckedListBox.Items(i) to
MyListBox.Items(j).item(0).ToString = MyCheckedListBox.Items(i).item(0).tostring
for it to work.

Thanks alot for the timely response.
