hi i have a dropdown and list box in a form.after selecting,when the user clicks submit data will get submitted.
for edit i want the items to be selected .when the user make changes in the control and click update it should get updated...i want to know how to show the controls as selected after retrieving from db

When the user submits, get the listbox value. Check if it matches with the value in the database and make it selected.
