Hi all,

I have a simple WebDropDown bound to an object datasource, defined as so

<ig:WebDropDown AutoSelectOnMatch="True" 

                                    ID="wddLocation" runat="server" DataSourceID="odsLocation" 

                                    TextField="LocationName" ValueField="LocationID" Width="200px" 

                                    SelectedValue='<%# Bind("LocationID") %>' DisplayMode="DropDownList" 

                                    EnableAnimations="False" >

                                    <DropDownItemBinding TextField="LocationName" ValueField="LocationID" />

                                </ig:WebDropDown>

The datasource populates fine, I can see values. However the SelectedValue is just ignored every time? During a postback, I can query the .SelectedValue and see that it did succesfully receive the value, but the client only ever shows the first item in the list.

I tried setting CurrentValue just to ensure it was setting, and that worked fine, currentvalue because the ID I wanted, but obviously I don't want that shown on the dropdown, I want it to select the value automatically.

I have tried AutoSelectMatch being true/false, makes no difference, and not using any autopostbacks.

Can anyone shed some light on what's wrong?

Many thanks
