In your code, add this line after you add an item:

checkedlistbox1.SelectedIndex = checkedlistbox1.Items.Count-1

work with ControlAdded event of your checkedListBox and use Items.count-1 to get the last item added.

Well you can do a number of things:

1) Set the checked state of the item when you add it to the CheckedListBox manually.

CheckedListBoxItem cbl = new CheckedListBoxItem ();
this.checkListBox.Items.Add(cbl);
clb.Checked = true;

2) Create a sub-class of the CheckedListBox and override the 'Add' method to check the item just before adding it.

3) Create a sub-class of the CheckedListBox that exposes an ItemAdded event, wire up to that event and then set the checked state of the item.
