remove item from list???

I have a really simple problem, well for you guys anyway. For some reason it won't let me delete an item from the list once I have clicked on it. I get a 'type mismatch' error.

FuelDelete = lstFuel.Text
lstFuel.RemoveItem FuelDelete

Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks to whoever can help me :)

You need to provide the RemoveItem method the ListIndex to be removed, not the text.

Thanks. I did that before but I typed in the wrong thing for the index. Thanks for that.
