    Here is my solution for you:

    I suspect that you are binding the menu item with datasource so the databinding of the menuitme happens before the page load where you have set the drop down list items and selected one of them so i suggest that in your page load, make the steps as following:

    1. Fill the drop down list with data
    2. Select the item from the drop down list
    3. Make the menu item binding

    OR

    You can fill the drop down list and select an item in the Page_OnInt event.

    In Both cases you have to update you code by adding <%# YourDropDownList.SelectedValue %>
