How to port this Linq to VS 2005

Go To StackoverFlow.com

I have following code in VS2008

If Linq.Enumerable.Contains(Of String)(selectedUsersRoles, RoleCheckBox.Text) Then
    RoleCheckBox.Checked = True
Else
    RoleCheckBox.Checked = False
End If

I need the above code in VS2005

What can i do instead of linq in above code? Can anybody help?

Can you give us some more context please, e.g. What type is selectedUsersRoles (i.e. what's the question mark here "Dim selectedUsersRoles as ?"), thanks - Binary Worrier 2009-06-16 09:20

RoleCheckBox.Checked = False
For Each str As String in selectedUsersRoles
     If str = RoleCheckBox.Text Then
          RoleCheckBox.Checked = True
          Exit For
     End If
Next

If you don't wish to alter the RoleCheckBox.Checked twice (when str is actually found) then declare a boolean flag (i.e. boolFound) with an initial False value, change it to true when found, and asign RoleCheckBox.Checked = boolFound after the "for each" loop....

bool containsRole = false;
foreach(string entry in selectedUsersRoles)
{
  if(entry == RoleCheckBox.Text)
  {
    containsRole = true;
    break;
  }
}

RoleCheckBox.Checked = containsRole;

The code is C# but i guess u'll get the idea. This is for IEnumerable. If you have a list try Binary Worrier's sollution.
