How to dynamically change / set checkedListBox item fore colour

Question

I have code below. How can i set checkedListBox item fore colour depending on if item is checked or not checked?

private void FindSelectedUserRoles()
{
        lblSelectedUser.Text = Code.CommonUtilities.getDgvStringColValue(dataGridViewUserList, "UserName").Trim();

        //iterate all roles selected user is member of
        for (int i = 0; i < checkedListRoles.Items.Count; i++)
        {
            string roleName = checkedListRoles.Items[i].ToString();
            string selectedUserRoles = Code.MemberShipManager.GetSpecificUsersRoles(lblSelectedUser.Text.Trim());

            if (selectedUserRoles.Contains(roleName))
            {
                checkedListRoles.SetItemChecked(i, true);
                //here i want to set item fore colour to green

            }
            else if (selectedUserRoles.Contains(roleName) == false)
            {
                checkedListRoles.SetItemChecked(i, false);
                //and here, i want item fore colour to remain black
            }
        }
}

I think you should try ListView instead of checkedListBox. It has necessary properties and could be customized as you wish. Just set Checkboxes property to true, and then in your code add forecolor like that:

listView1.Items[i].ForeColor = Color.Red;
