I have a dropdownlist in datalist. I use arraylist to bind the datalist. In arraylist it is "DataNew" Class which has the property of DataTable "dt_city". Now I bind the DataTable to dropdownlist
Line73: <tr> Line 74: <td style="width: 100px; height: 24px"> Line 75: <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" Line 76: SelectedValue='<%# DataBinder.Eval(((DataNew)Container.DataItem).dt_city,"city") %>'> Line 77: </asp:DropDownList></td>
But I got the error of: Server Error in '/AFIRS' Application. DataBinding: 'System.Data.DataTable' does not contain a property with the name 'city'.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

I have a dropdownlist that's being populated from a SQL datasource. I would also like to have a tooltip for each dropdownlist list item on mouse over. I found the example below which adds a title attribute for each list item using the listitem text as a tooltip but I want to make the title/tooltip value another field in the database. In other words,
I have list of addresses and would like to bind ZIP Id to DropDownList.
when I use SelectedValue property it throw the error: 'DropDownList1' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Parameter name: value.
I am new to ASP.NET, trying to learn it. I am using ASP.NET 3.5 with VB for scripting. Also read some books. I just can't figure out how to bind a DropDown List inside a Repeater Control. I saw a few examples but none were clear enough and explained all the details. I want to populate the Drop-Down using values from a Database inside the repeater.
I also read this article [URL] but still can't understand how to bind dropdown in a repeater.
I want to display 2 things inside the Repeater Control.
1. User Selected Values (which comes in the form of an Arraylist) from a previous page using "PostBackUrl" method.
2. Then allow users to select values from a Dropdown list corresponding to each design code they selected on previous page. (the dropdown values here must come from a backend db)
Also, I want to control the number or rows displayed inside the repeater control. It should be equal to the number of "design codes" selected by the user on a previous page.
when bind list of strings to listview , what value needs to supply for Datakey or what should be done so ListViewUpdateEventArgs.newValues in ItemUpdating event can be accessed without empty?
Is it possible to bind two separated datasources to one dropdown list such that they are both alphabetically sorted and seprated by some sort of line. I know there is a way to insert elemets manually, but I'm not sure of the 2 separate datasources. I've serached this forum and while there were several posts none of them offered any workable solution.

I have a FormView and I want to set a default value from the database. I can't get it to bind to the value in the database. My FormView looks like this:
[Code]....
The EditItemTemplate does not even load when I click the edit button on my FormView control, but I don't get an error message either.
I'm modifying an existing application. I need to be able to bind the Text property of an asp:DropDownList control to one of two fields when the page is rendered. The existing code is like this:
[Code]....
I've tried to use conditional logic on the .aspx page when setting the Text property, but everything I've tried results in an error. I've also tried using code-behind to set the Tetxt property in the Page_Load event. This doesn't generate an error, but it doesn't set the property either.
I have a slight issue I awas trying to fix for 2-3 days, but nothing I try works.
The scenario:
DetailsView control in edit mode, I pass parameters to the SqlDataSourceProducts (edit.aspx?id=2) and the data source selects the appropriate data and fills in the DetailsView form.
Except two drop down lists. These two DDLs (DDL2 and DDL3) are dependent on the previous DDL (DDL1) in the DetailsView.
when the selected value of the DDL1 changes, DDL2 and 3 change their lists and get bound to the database.
The problem is: when I edit something from the database, DDL2 and 3 appear empty and when I update any other field and leave these, they get blanked in the database.
My goal is to set the selected value of DDL2 and 3 to the values in the database WHERE ID = QueryStringField="id".
I can go for not binding the data unless the field is changed, but does not sound professional and user friendly.
code:
The SqlDataSource used to select the parameters from the table and populate the DetailsView

I have a formview in which I have a dropdown list that displays a list of owners. In case the list does not have the correct owner for the user I have added functionality for them to add a new owner to the database table that populates the list. I did this by including a textbox and an Insert button in a panel. When the user clicks the new owner insert button I would like to re-databind the dropdown list so that they will see the owner they added and be able to select it.
When I add ddl_owners.databind to my button click code it gives me an error. "Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."
I don't want to re-databind the entire formview because then it deletes all the information on the form that the user has already keyed in.
