I've built my own CMS using vb. It displays the pagetitle, summary and body from a database, depending upon what parameters are passed in the url.
Some pages require a drop down list where users can select a document from a list.
Is there a way to add this to the page?
something like:

In this code you can see the select statement that the customers are selected for display to the user. Order by is at least being used to disply in name order. but this example here is one of several similar dropdowns. I would like that if they picked one customer then the next view show should be the same customer

I have a ListView that contains a lot of editable items. Every item has some values, like; item name, item price, item size and so forth. I would like to add another editable column which should be a drop down list. This should list which sizes the item is available at, like S, M, L, XL. Some item are only available in S and M, while other items may just have a standard size (meaning none of the above sizes). So for example if you are to add an item called polo shirt and its only available in sizes L and XL then you should be able to do that. And then at the front-end where the users surf the items it should be like that when a users sees this Polo shirt he should be presented with a drop down list where he is only able to select L and XL
I can't figure out how to implement this in the Listview and the database. I have mentioned that I want a drop down list to appear in the back-end, this is not a necessity, anything will do as long as the front-end is showing a drop down list with the choosen sizes.
what the problem is that i want to populate drop down list manually
but the thing is i have 3 drop down lists
in first one user will select table name from where the data of 2nd Drop Down list will come
suppose user selected seo then the sql query would be select project_name from dropdownlist1.selecteditem
and this query will show project_name column of seo table in dropdownlist2
then user will select any project name from dropdownlist2 suppose he select salveo so i want that my text box will get populate with project_id of project_name
suppose the project_id of salveo is 123 then automatically in textbox it will enter 123
I am trying to display data in a formview based on the value selected from the drop down list. FormView does not respond or display any data.
<b>Select a vendor:</b>

In a two column table I have a datalist pulling questions from a sql table in one and a dropdown list showing options for people to choose in the other.It all works well.The issue I have is with the formatting, since some questions span two lines, the dropdown list does not match the questions all the time. How can I make sure the dropdown list matchs the questions?I have valign=top on both cells.Do I need to reformat the datalist? I tried putting a dropdown list in a datalist cell, but that did not work.

I am in the process of creating a "news system", you can add, edit and delete news. The news items can be entered into the SQL database and you select a category where you want the news item to go into.
What I want is when someone comes to the "Edit" screen, they have a drop down list and what that does is allows you to select a category for you to edit news items from, so rather than at present having the "Edit" page display all the news items, I want people to be able to choose a category that they can edit news items in.
So far my edit page has a datagrid with the following code:

I have got two questions:
1) If I have already given the data type to d as DropDownList, why do we need to typecast it again to e.Item.FindControl("dd1"). Is it because it will typecast this to the data type of the selected item in Drop Down list?
2) Why do we need to write this in Item Data Bound Event of the DataList?

From my understanding this if (ddl_Upload.SelectedValue == .... Is only recognized if I would have listed -Select, Images etc as List Items for the drop down???
I have a drop-down list that is wired up to a datasource from one table to retrieve a Vendor ID and Vendor Name. This ddl is outside a FormView that is wired up to a datasource containing Vendor contracts.
When I choose a Vendor from the ddl, I am able to populate a textbox outside of FormView with the Vendor ID from the ddl. However, what I need to do is populate a textbox within FormView with the Vendor ID. FormView is in Insert Mode by default since my page will be used for Adding Contracts only.
