if a checkboxlist is not selected shows save as number 0 in DB

[suely]

I'm working in a web aplication in c#, vs 2008, framework 3.5, I need to assign a value to a var, in this case "problemas",
when I tried to save the value that I have in the checkboxlist, it does, but if don't selected, can't show 0, besides if I change the value "problemas = 9" to problemas = 111111" doesn't works, I've tried a lot of options but nothing works to me, please help, thanks in advance.

protected void ckblProblemas_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int problemas = 0;
{
if (ckblProblemas.SelectedValue.Equals("9"))
                {
                    problemas = 9;
                }
 
                else
                {
                    problemas.Equals("0");
                }

I'm not quite sure i understood, if the problem is to make problemas = "111111", change its type, since an integer cannot be larger than 32,000 (aprox). Use a long.

If your problem is with the selected value. Select a default value in the 'load' sub.

I can handle problemas=111, it was just an example because I realise that doesn´t save the value from problemas=111.. but in my database I save the value, my problem is if the user don´t select anything in the checkboxlist, I need to save that as a 0 in my db, but now I can´t, anyway, I'll try what you said, thanks for your reply. :)
