Hi Kirk,
To get the value, you use the SelectedItem property like the following:
DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value
>I have a DDL on a webform, it is populated from a sql query, and has two fields, the description (DataTextField) and Record ID (DataValueField).
>
>After the user selects from the drop down list, how do I get the datavaluefield for use in the next query?
>
>Thanks
>Kirk
