.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / July 2007Pass VB Variable to ASP Control Property
Hi everyone, this must be easy, but I can't get it right. How do I pass the VBvariable created at page_load to the property of a web control: .... <asp:DropDownList ID="cbo1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="<%=VBVariable%>" .... What is the correct syntax for DataTextField="<%=VBVariable%>"? Best regards Robert > Hi everyone, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > What is the correct syntax for DataTextField="<%=VBVariable%>"? Looks OK to me - what error(s) are you getting...? Also, I'm assuming that VBVariable *does* actually contain a value... :-)  SignatureMark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net Hi Mark, If I hard code the variable everything works fine. If Then replace the text "ATT_Department" with "<%=VBVariable%>", I got the following message: DataBinding: System.Data.DataRowView enthält keine Eigenschaft mit dem Namen <%=ATT_Name %>. Translated to English: DataBinding: System.Data.DataRowView has no property named <%=ATT_Name %> In Debug mode, if I place the mouse over the variable it reads "ATT_Department". So it does have a value. Any ideas?

In order to visible to the aspx page, server-side variables need to be Public or Protected.
