Issue on asp.net dropdownlist.

[nirmalsingh]

hai all.

i have loaded a dropdownlist box using code.

[HTML] cboUserGroup.Da taSource = loadGroupCombos ("").Tables[0];
cboUserGroup.Da taTextField = "name";
cboUserGroup.Da taValueField = "id";
cboUserGroup.Da taBind();[/HTML]
now the dropdownlist box have the values such as

name---------------id
--------------------------
A ------------------- 1
B-------------------- 2
C-------------------- 3
D-------------------- 4
for eg selected text is 'A'
now i want to change the selected text as 'B'
i have tried a many ways such as
[HTML]cboUserGroup.It ems.FindByValue ("B").Select ed = true;
cboUserGroup.Se lectedItem.Sele cted = "B";
cboUserGroup.Da taValueField.In dexOf("B");
cboUserGroup.It ems.FindByValue ("B").Select ed = true;
cboUserGroup.Da taBind();[/HTML]

but it is not working,
but
[HTML]cboUserGroup.Se lectedIndex = 1;[/HTML] is working.

and another major issue is when i used this the above method, selected index is
changing but cboUserGroup_Se lectedIndexChan ged is not firing.

Note: i used autopostback=tr ue for dropdown list.

plz help me to solve this.
thanx in advance.

Well, what you could do is whenever you use the codebehind to change the selected index, you could follow that with a call to [CODE=cpp]cboUserGroup_Se lectedIndexChan ged(cboUserGrou p, null);[/CODE]
