DropdownListColumn of Ultrawebgrid
posted

Hi,

I have a dropdownlist column in my ultrawebgrid.

The code I used for binding the values to this column is:

  

DataSet dsskil = new DataSet();

dsskil = rectskills.recruitmntSkillsproc(8, 0, docid, deptid, finyr, desg, 0, 0, 0, "");

lstSkill.DataTextField = "skillM_SkillsNV";

lstSkill.DataValueField = "rectCS_skillsIdI";

lstSkill.DataSource = dsskil;

lstSkill.DataBind();

I have a need to get the value of selected text.

for that i write a code like :

int iSkillId = Convert.ToInt32(uwgSkills.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value.ToString());

At runtime I got an errror on this line as 'Input string was not in correct format'.

How can i get  the selected value from this column.

Thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    It is a bit hard to tell without seeing the complete stack trace. Do you have "Format" property set on this particular columns? Can you please paste the complete stack trace you are getting with any additional clues that might help?

    Thanks.
