Remove items from one list in another

You don't need an index, as the List<T> class allows you to remove items by value rather than index by using the Remove function.

foreach(car item in list1) list2.Remove(item);

In my case I had two different lists, with a common identifier, kind of like a foreign key. The second solution cited by "nzrytmn":

var result =  list1.Where(p => !list2.Any(x => x.ID == p.ID && x.property1 == p.property1)).ToList();

Was the one that best fit in my situation. I needed to load a DropDownList without the records that had already been registered.

Thank you !!!

This is my code:

t1 = new T1();
t2 = new T2();

List<T1> list1 = t1.getList();
List<T2> list2 = t2.getList();

ddlT3.DataSource= list2.Where(s => !list1.Any(p => p.Id == s.ID)).ToList();
ddlT3.DataTextField = "AnyThing";
ddlT3.DataValueField = "IdAnyThing";
ddlT3.DataBind();

You can use Except:

List<car> list1 = GetTheList();
List<car> list2 = GetSomeOtherList();
List<car> result = list2.Except(list1).ToList();

You probably don't even need those temporary variables:

List<car> result = GetSomeOtherList().Except(GetTheList()).ToList();

Note that Except does not modify either list - it creates a new list with the result.
