If I understand your situation.
the ‘name’ value is the
DataTextFieldin thedropDown,and the ‘id’ value is the
DataValueFieldin the dropDown.so,
If it’s realy like that, it simple to do it, you have to take the:
DropDownList1.Items[ DropDownList1.SelectedIndex].Text– this is the ‘name’ value, and the:DropDownList1.SelectedValue– this is the ‘id’ value.
