DropdownList (1 Viewer)

Hi,

In MS Access, I can create the dropdownlist,
recordsource = select company,id from vendor
columncount = 1
it only display company values.
when the user select the value from the dropdownlist, we can populate id value on next textbox using dropdowlist1.column(1).

Does ASP.NET do that?

It's similar. You see you can bind any IEnumerable object to a listbox.. DataSets, DataTables, List (of [Object]), Arrays etc.. so you might have something

ddlDropDownList1.DataSource=[IENumerable DataSource]
ddlDropDownList1.DataBind()

that would bind the data provided you were using a dataset object

then on postback, you would do something like

TextBox1.Text=ddlDropDownList1.SelectedValue

that's basic idea.
