I know I have done this but my mind is fried. I have a dynamic dropdown in
a form. I need to pull both the dynamic dropdown's ID and name listed in
the dropdown. Need a little help with grey matter tonight.

In server-side code? The only thing passed from your html during a
submission to the server-side code is the name-value pairs found in either
the Form or Querystring collections. You can't even tell the type of
controls that were the source of the name-value pairs.
Unless you store the ID's in a hidden field*, perhaps using xml, there is no
way to determine the ID's in server-side code.

* or make the ID's the same as the names - not recommended

Perhaps store both the ID and the name in the value part such as
"345|Smith Company"

That was it. Pass both values and split on database entry. That worked
great.
Thanks

Exactly. I can't think of a situation where I would need to pass both values
in the form submission (which is why I thought he was talking about the
