I have a dropdownlist that gets data through entity objects, but with a navigation. But I get an error trying to do this.
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlVacancy" DataValueField="ID" DataTextField='<%# Eval("Position.Name") %>'
runat="server" Width="200px"/>
I want to know where lies the difference between these two.I had a google search on this topic and a lots of replies and each of them tell the same thing:
Eval means one way binding(i.e;readonly)
Bind means two way binding(i.e;both read as well as write the datasource)
but none of them explained it more clearly.all i want to know is how can i use the Bind to update/insert something from the datasource?
I got the difference between Bind and EVal from here. Bind will do both way reading and writing. And Eval do only reading. So any function only for writing?

I have four fields on my insert form: Server, Farm, Silo and Reason. Farm and Silo populate based on the name of the server that is entered. If I take out the SelectedValue='<%# Bind("value") %> the form doesn't error out, but the fields don't post back to the DB.

I was using
<%# Bind("FirstName")%> but noticed
<%# Eval("FirstName")%> works just as well.
Is it better to use Eval or Bind? or does it depend on the situation?

I have a gridview with 3 nested dropdownlists in one cell on edit like this:To get the exact fields when the user clicks on edit I used the following code(yes it's messy)
[Code]....
The BLLOnderhoud is a class and the getReserveInfo is used to get the Model - Brand(merk) Information.Since the dropdownlists are nested in the gridview I can't call them directly and they can't call any of my functions.And this is the problem, when I change the dropdownfield Model the Auto field wich is the last dropdown(in the picture is a typo) should be binded like in the following code:
[Code]....
But the dropdownlist onDataBound event can't call any of my functions that are in my class.So my question is how can the onDataBound event of the second dropbox trigger a function? The only thing that the function has to do is to bind the 3rd dropdownlist
Using dropdown in gridview and bind the values in dropdown then based on dropdown display the value in another column.

I m using the following code to bind dropdownlist using ADO.NET
Code:
Protected Sub HeadsData()
Dim conn As SqlConnection
Dim cmd As SqlCommand
Dim reader As SqlDataReader
Dim constr As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ams").ConnectionString
conn = New SqlConnection(constr)
cmd = New SqlCommand("Select HeadId,HeadName from Heads Order By HeadName", conn)
conn.Open()
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
While reader.Read
cmbType.DataSource = reader
cmbType.DataTextField = "HeadName"
cmbType.DataValueField = "HeadId"
cmbType.DataBind()
End While
End Sub
I have 5 records in Heads table, but when i run the project it misses the first record and shows the remaining 4 in dropdownlist. Is there anything worng with this code ?
