two strings to one

The following code gives me an odd error

Code:

String * strg = textBox1->Text + listBox1->SelectedItem->ToString();

the error message:

cannot perform pointer arithmetic on __gc pointer 'System::String __gc *'

What should i do?

Are you trying to concatenate two strings? Then you do this way with VB:

str = str1 & str2
