SLX Web Development....c# question Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Posted: 25 Aug 10 3:48 AM

Hi All, this question relates to an slx development im dong but is more a general coding question.....

I have two listboxes A and B, i populate listbox A with sql that retrieves user names and their related ID's from the USERINFO table. I set A's datatextfield as username for the display property and have the ID as the hidden datavaluefield.

I am able to move usernames back and forth from listbox A to listbox B with no problems but im not sure how to get the users ID (datavaluefield) to move between listboxes with their name and have the ID remain hidden.

What i want is to allow users to move names back and forth as much as they like, then once they are finished they will click OK and i will grab the ID's of the names they have moved into listbox B for use later.

Any ideas?

One thing you might want to try is creating an intermediate object, like a DataTable, that implements IEnumerable and supports databinding. When you trap the postback from list A, add the element into your intermediate object (you can theoretically add the ListItem itself), then bind the intermediate object to list B.

Are you doing the Move Client Side using Javascript or Server Side?

Server side should be much easier as you should be using ListItem objects.
So, from the ListBox, get the SelectedItem, which would bring the Text and Value so that you move it over.

Similar if you are using Client Side javascript. You would set both the Text and Value properties for the Element item as you move it.

You should be able to find plenty of examples if you search on Google on how to do this.
