        }


        private void textBox2_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

        private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

You just need to change the foreach loop to:

private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            this.textBox1.Text = comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();

            textBox2.Text = string.Empty;
            foreach (var item in comboBox1.Items)
                textBox2.Text += item.ToString();
        }
