To get the selected item from a dropdownlist you do this.

String selectedItem = DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value;

now if you want to save that value right after the user change selection you have to set autopostback property in the dropdownlist to true and under the OnselectedIndexChanged event create your procedure to save that value in the database.
