Answer 1

Your question contains correct code, only change which is required is to use checkedListBox1.CheckedItems instead of checkedListBox1.SelectedItems

Code:

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    XmlTextWriter xwriter = new XmlTextWriter("GetDetails.xml",  Encoding.Unicode);
    xwriter.WriteStartDocument();
    xwriter.WriteStartElement("XMLFILE");
    xwriter.WriteStartElement("file");
    xwriter.WriteString(textBox1.Text);
    xwriter.WriteEndElement();

    foreach (var item in checkedListBox1.CheckedItems)
    {
        xwriter.WriteStartElement("SelectedItems");
        xwriter.WriteString(item.ToString());
        xwriter.WriteEndElement();

    }
    xwriter.WriteEndElement();
    xwriter.WriteEndDocument();
    xwriter.Close();
}  

Answer 2

This ended up being quite simple. checkedListBox1.Item[i] is a string value, and an explicit convert allowed it to be loaded into a variable. The following code works:

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string str="";
    for (int i = 0; i < checkedListBox1.Items.Count; i++)
    {
          if (checkedListBox1.GetItemChecked(i))
        {
            str += (string)checkedListBox1.Items[i];

        }
    }
     MessageBox.Show(str);
}

Now you got the items. You can write to XML File.

For Writing into XML DOC

System.IO.File.WriteAllText("GetDetails.xml", str);
