Hi,

In my page I have a 2 list boxes, a Fileupload control and a Display button.

I have to follow the below actions:

1. If I select a value "Get from DB" in listBox1 then the data will be fetched from DB Table and shown in a gridview.
-- This is happening.
2. If I select a value "upload" in listBox1 then the Fileupload control should be enabled.
-- This is also happening.

3. When I upload an excel file in the file upload control and click on display, The list of sheet names in the excel file should be displayed in ListBox2.
-- This is also happening.

4. When I select any sheet name in the list box 2, the data should be read from the selected sheet name of the workbook and get displayed as grid.

-- The issue is in this step only, whatever sheet I select it is automatically selecting the Index 0 and the data from the sheet name at index 0 is getting displayed in the grid view.

To be more clear whatever sheet name I select the sheet name at Index 0 of the list box is considered.

Please help.

Thanks & Regards,
Mathi.

Check this. It should work-

C#

string text_value = listBox2.GetItemText(listBox2.SelectedItem);

If this is not working, please let me know :)

I have found the solution.

I'm using ListBox2.SelectedItem.Text to fetch the value.
But while assigning the DataFieldValue I have given 0 by default for all the List Items.
So whatever I select it considers based on the DataFieldValue, since Item in Index 0 is also having the DataFieldVlaue as 0 whatever Item I select by default it is considering the Item at Index 0.

Solution: Just bound the list alone as ListBox2.DataSource and didnt mention explicitly abount any DataFieldValue.

Thanks all.

Mathi.
