}Well, again, your code really sucks. You need to abandon this project, and work on something more simple while you are just learning and cannot write commercial quality code. You seem to not know anything about ASP.NET and how it works yet.

Every time you do this, the selected index is reset. I assume you call it in page load, and it therefore runs prior to your event, which is the problem.

This is an absolute joke.

I assume this method is being called by pageload now ? What is calling it ? I am saying if you do this in page load, or any time prior to trying to access the selection, it will reset the selection. In fact, you should use IsPostback blocks to only load the data the first time, after that, it is in viewstate

I think
DataSetandDataTableare the most misused classes in .NET framework. :)Navaneeth How to use google | Ask smart questions

Well, for a class called DAL to require a connection string AND SQL, just beggars belief. The sad thing is, someone somewhere is paying for this code, and I am certain he will ignore what I said, and deliver a project that is poorly written, unmaintainable, and totally insecure. You have to wonder who is basing their inventory systems, staff management and other vital functions to this sort of third rate beginner code, and, worse, if the bad job being done by these people, will end up reflecting on how dumb managers view you and I, people who have done the work to learn how to write professional code, before presuming to charge money for our efforts.

Whatever Christian is pointed out is right but If proper code review is there it won't happen. right?
