Change the SelectedItem value after selecing from a DropDownList and clicked button
Hi,
I have just started to use a ListItem[] in order to avoid using the collection property in the DropDownList so I have a list of items with their respective names and the values they should have behind them as follows:
private void InitializeDelivPointDropDown()
{
items[0] = new ListItem("Select", "-1");
items[1] = new ListItem("WareTest 1", "IPaddress");
items[2] = new ListItem("WareTest 2", "IPaddress");
items[3] = new ListItem("28A", "IPaddress");
items[4] = new ListItem( "26T","IPaddress");
items[5] = new ListItem("B9 2","IPaddress");
items[6] = new ListItem("B9 8","IPaddress");
items[7] = new ListItem("All Delivery Points", "0");
WorkcellDropDownList.Items.Clear();
WorkcellDropDownList.Items.AddRange(items);
}
now, when this code runs it initiates the value of the WorkcellDropDownList to be the first one.
So when running my scan button after I have selected a new index in the dropdownlist it still keeps the last values.
also I am running this code under the Page_Load but it seems that as soon as I click the button it runs the Page_Load event which is not what I would thought it would do, any way to change this?
Thanks!
