refresh a listbox vb.net

I have a list Box that contains the names of several files. I can select a file name and click delete. The file will then be removed from my rackspace account. How do I automatically refresh the listBox with out restarting my application?

I have tried the following

listBox.refresh()
listBox.Update()

and neither give me the result I'm looking for.

If you want to remove items from a ListBox you have multiple options. You can reload the DataSource that you are using or you can simple remove them from the Items by using ListBox.Items.Remove(item) or ListBox.Items.RemoveAt(index).

private void listBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int index = listBox1.SelectedIndex;
    listBox1.Items.RemoveAt(index);
    // or 
    object item = listBox1.SelectedItem;
    listBox1.Items.Remove(item);
}
