0	This is fine. But after binding you are selecting the value from drop down box right? If yes, the above code should work fine. Best Regards, VG www.TeacherJi.com Ramu02, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Hi, Your requirement should be like, once u select the value in the drop down or list box and click on button delete then it should delete the value in the database? If this is the case then your code should be some thing like below in the selected event trigger of the drop down or list box get the value in a string and you need to connect to the database and delete that record. If Selected value is not working in the drop down list then go with the SELECTED INDEX. Thanks Karthik www.f5Debug.net Ramu02, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

Hi,

Your requirement should be like, once u select the value in the drop down or list box and click on button delete then it should delete the value in the database?

If this is the case then your code should be some thing like below

in the selected event trigger of the drop down or list box get the value in a string and you need to connect to the database and delete that record. If Selected value is not working in the drop down list then go with the SELECTED INDEX.

0	Make sure you have set the enable view state property to true, and also make sure your are not binding date to the dropdown on post back, usually developers tend to forget and bind data to dropdown even on post back, this tends to change the selected item to the default first item so that in your case too so that is getting deleted.
