Regarding ListItem Class

Jul 31st, 2004

Hi All,
I am using a DropDownList in my page and I am binding the property of this server control like follows.
<%#DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text%>
What I am finding is that it returns the text for the item I have selected. If I use the value property of the ListItem, then also it returns the text for the item I have selected.
In that case, what is the difference between the text property and the value property of the ListItem class??
I am sorry, if it is a very basic question..
Thanks and Regards,
CSPEK
