DropDownList ValueHi All,
How do I get the value of the DataValueField that is selected. I don't want the SelectedValue I want the actual field value. So, if I display Staff Names within the drop down list, I don't want the Staff Name, I want the StaffID which is the value contained in the DataValueField. Thanks, Joe It should be like this.
value=ddownlist.items[ddownlist.selectedindex].value; textvalue=ddownlist.items[ddownlist.selectedindex].text; this Borland like language, but in Studio languages it should sound familiar.

I was able to work it out. 'Borland like' doesn't surprise me since C# is Anders Heilsberg (spelling?) baby. Of course he was mostly responsible for Delphi of which has been my development language since 1995.
