Windows.Forms listbox vs WebControls listbox

G

GentOfTheLake

Why won't the webcontrols version of the listbox work with this:

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo([somepath]);
FileInfo [] fi = di.GetFiles();
ListBox lb = new ListBox();
lb.AddRange(fi);

The forms version of the listbox handles this just fine.

Does anyone know how to convert the FileInfo[] to ListItem[] for the
AddRange function?

I've tried:

ListItem[] li = new ListItem[fi.Length];
fi.CopyTo(li,0);
lstFiles.Items.AddRange(li);

Compiles but I get an exception at runtime
"Source array type cannot be assigned to destination array type."

Thanks in advance for your help
