Editing Text Box Values

[brian shannon]

I am filling text boxes from a data reader. That works
fine. If I edit a text box to a different value and
click a save button the orginal value that was edited is
being used in the SQL string. I verified this through
debugging.

Does anyone know of a reason why the original values are
being perserved? The text boxes are not set to read only.

Thanks.

Hi Brian,

Did you use
"not postback" ?

probably because you aren't checking for a page.ispostback when you are
binding the data from the datareader to textboxes.

it would be something like this in page_load

if not page.ispostback then
'do everything to fill the text boxes originally
end if

Hi Brian,

I see I edited to much but I think you saw it "IsPostBack"
