//Multiple selection:

          private void clbsec(CheckedListBox clb, string text)
          {
              for (int i = 0; i < clb.Items.Count; i++)
              {
                  if(text == clb.Items[i].ToString())
                  {
                      clb.SetItemChecked(i, true);
                  }
              }
          }

using ==>

clbsec(checkedListBox1,"michael");

or 

clbsec(checkedListBox1,textBox1.Text);

or

clbsec(checkedListBox1,dataGridView1.CurrentCell.Value.toString());
