As in the case of an array you can use the IndexOf method to look for a particular element. Here's a quick example: Imports System Imports System.Collections.Generic Module Test Sub Main Dim iList As new List(Of Integer) iList.Add(24) iList.Add(42) iList.Add(67) iList.Add(81) ' check if iList contains 42 Dim index As Integer = iList.IndexOf(42) If (index > -1) Then Console.WriteLine(42 is element number {0} of iList index + 1) Else Console.WriteLine(42 is not an element of iList) End If Console.ReadKey End Sub End Module
