    Databinding DropDownList and Label

    Hi
    I'm using a FormView control.

    In my EditTemplate, I have bound to a DropDownList. This works fine, by
    having the key in my primary table, which is looked up via the binding to my
    DDL using the DataSourceID etc..

    However, I want to have the value that is in the drop down list to be shown
    in the Label control on my ItemTemplate. This is tricky, because the label
    control does not have a DataSourceID property for me to use with the
    binding.

    Whats the best way to achieve this??
    Should I just use the DropDownList in my ItemTemplate also, but just disable
    it??

    Thanks

      Might not be best way. Populate label on server in ddl selectedindex changed
      event.
      Good Luck Paul
