Dropdown List - asp.net how to determine VALUE?

1 New Member
Hello-
In an asp.net page i have several asp:dropdownlist controls, and button. The vb.net that handles the click event of the button attempts to get the VALUE of the drop downs. It is only successful when the dropdowns have been changed. On the other hand I seem to be able to always get the TEXT values of the dropdowns. I need to store the VALUEs though. Is there an easy way to derive the value associated with the text displayed in a dropdown list?
This has been bugging me. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
