listview doesn't show the values for Dropdownlist and Label controlsbut it shows for TextBox yes

[mesut]

Hi colleagues,

I've a very strange problem here. I have no clue whyt it happens.

I have a listview. The Listview populates well. I have an Update
Button in the listview and a Listview_ItemUp dating(object sender,
ListViewUpdateE ventArgs e).

The problem is : I'm able to retrieve the TextBox values. But not for
the Labels and for the Dropdownlistbox ????

So below the the field :
- Location type TEXTBOX shows the data ( property Text) I get the data
value
- Lot type LABEL and LineType DROPDOWNLISTBOX (property: .text
and .SelectedValue) shows empty. I won't get the data. It shows empty.

why???????? I'm confused, because why am I able to get the values from
TEXTBOXES but not for other controls like DROPDOWNLISTBOX ,
LABELS?????? etc.

returns:
location = "abcdef"
Lot = ""
LineType = ""

protected void lvSalesOrderInq uiry_ItemUpdati ng(object sender,
ListViewUpdateE ventArgs e)
{
ListView me = (ListView)sende r;
// I get some value
Location =
((TextBox)me.It ems[e.ItemIndex].FindControl("T extBoxProductNu mber")).Text;

//I get empty string.... no value is returned.
Lot =
((Label)me.Item s[e.ItemIndex].FindControl("L abelLot")).Text ;
LineType =
((DropDownList) me.Items[e.ItemIndex].FindControl("( (DropDownListLi neType")).Selec tedValue;
thanks for the help,
mesut
