Since you didn't specify language, this is in C# (VB would be very similar):

C#

string data = string.Format("{0} * {1} * {3}", dataItem1, dataItem2, dataItem3);
listbox.Items.Add(data)

{3} should be {2}

If you could uses LINQ to SQL for the query then in would look like:

var query = 
    from m in dataContext.polygon
    where m.locatorid == 1234
    select m.polygoncords;

var listCords = query.ToList(); 

// Here you can transform the presentation of the data if desired
// FormatData would be a function that would take one polygoncords item
// and returns a string appropriatly formated.
var formatedResult = (
    from m2 in listCord
    select FormatData(m2)).ToList();

listbox.Items.AddRange(formatedResult);
