How do I read the content from a given listbox?

I have a two-column listbox, populated with paths in column 1 and filenames
in column 2. How do I get the text from just column 2?

Example:

ComboBox1.List(ComboBox1.ListIndex, 1)

You can retrieve the information from any row/col combination using the .List
property. ListIndex will give you the currently selected item. As the second
argument, use the col index (0 = first column).
