0	Assuming your dropdown has value as "October", you can make it default selected if you write following code in the page load dropDown1.SelectedValue = "October"; If your dropdown has month digit as value, then write following code in the page load dropDown1.SelectedValue = "10"; This post will help you populate the month name easily in case you are using some other mechanism to populate the month name in the dropdown. http://www.dotnetfunda.com/codes/code987-how-to-populate-month-name-in-dropdownlist-in-aspnet.aspx Thanks Regards, Sheo Narayan http://www.dotnetfunda.com Amritha444, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

Assuming your dropdown has value as "October", you can make it default selected if you write following code in the page load

dropDown1.SelectedValue = "October";

If your dropdown has month digit as value, then write following code in the page load

        dropDown1.SelectedValue = "10";

This post will help you populate the month name easily in case you are using some other mechanism to populate the month name in the dropdown. http://www.dotnetfunda.com/codes/code987-how-to-populate-month-name-in-dropdownlist-in-aspnet.aspx

0	Hi Amritha, How to fill your data into DropDownList? Are you using Enum (or) DataTable (or) Item Property? Thanks, T.Saravanan Amritha444, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Hi Amritha, Its the critical one because if we set our system month into our dropdownlist means if any one change the system date means automatically change in our dropdown. So my suggestion is to get the month from server after add the items into dropdownlist then to set the month is selected value in your dropdown. Note : In your Server Date is Current Date. In SqlServer using this query means you get the current month Select DateName(Month,GetDate()) Cheers:) Thanks, T.Saravanan Amritha444, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
