[nikverse]

i am facing a few problem...
first i have a dropdown list
next i have a radio button list

now the question is how i arrange the items in the drop down list in alphabetical order?

another question is how i store the value for radion button list in a session object?

where do you get the items from in your drop down list?
If you get them from a database then you can sort them alphabetically as part of the SQL statement.

You should ask this in the ASP.NET section.

Dim bAdd As Boolean
For i = 0 To ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count - 1

strAdd = ds.Tables(0).Rows(i)(3)

'check if list already contain strAdd
bAdd = True
For j = 0 To DropDownList2.Items.Count - 1
If (DropDownList2.Items(j).Text = strAdd) Then
bAdd = False
Exit For
End If
Next

If (bAdd = True) Then
DropDownList2.Items.Add(strAdd)
End If

Next

Well, as was said earlier, you could set the sorted property to true for the combo OR you could re-write the SQL statement to get the data sorted using the ORDER BY statement.

As for the radio button stored in the session object, you could do

Session("RadioButton") = RadioButton.SelectedIndex

This assumes you use a RadioButtonList for your radio buttons.
