dropdownlist, textbox using dropdownlist_selectedindexchanged

[CindyH]

Hi
I'm using vs.net 2003.
I have a dropdownlist inside a datagrid.
I would like to be able to select a value from the dropdownlist and then
have a textbox which is also inside the datagrid filled with that value.

I'm calling OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlGridMonth_SelectedIndexChanged" event
when an item from the dropdownlist is selected

I'm not sure of the code I should be using for this event.
Right now I'm trying something like this:

Dim vddMonth As DropDownList =
CType(dgMonthlyReports.FindControl("ddlGridMonth"), DropDownList)
Dim vddMonthvalue As String = vddMonth.SelectedItem.Value()

Dim vtextMonth As TextBox =
CType(dgMonthlyReports.FindControl("ReportMonth"), TextBox)

Dim vtextMonthValue As String = vtextMonth.Text

If vddMonthvalue <> 0 Then

vtextMonthValue = vddMonthvalue

End If

I'm getting the value of the dropdownlist, but not the textbox and then I
need to see if the dropdownlist value is something other then 0 and if so
write the value to the textbox.

Thanks,

CindyH

We wrote this article and downloadable code years ago and I haven't looked
at it since we posted it, but we get lots of downloads from it. I don't know
whether it will help you or not, but it might and no one has answered your
post in two weeks.
