Compilation Error: dropdownlist does not contain a definition for selected value

Ashish Kanoongo

I am getting error at the time of compilation, However application runs successfully

'System.Web.UI. WebControls.Dro pDownList' does not contain a definition for 'SelectedValue' .

It is giving error in following line.

ddl.SelectedVal ue=ddlSelectedV alue

If I change this to

ddl.SelectedIte m.Value=ddlSele ctedValue or
ddl.SelectedIte m.Value.ToStrin g=ddlSelectedVa lue

Both are run succewssfully and not giving any compilation error.

I am newbie in DOTNET, so please guide me whats wrong I am doing. I am using Framework v1.0.3705.

Ashish,

you should upgrade to .NET Framework 1.1, because SelectedValue property is
not available in the version you use.
