C# I have a basic form to insert Events, I have 2 cascadingDropDownLists for Property and Location... Ok thats fine... Now i have an Edit Events page, and want to have the cascading dropdowns already pre-populated with teh information in the database... 

I've tried:

ListItem item = DropDownList1.Items.FindByValue(DataRow1["Property"].ToString()));
if (item != null)
{
item.Selected = true;
}

and now, i dont know what else to try... Or any suggestions around this would be great... Thanks. 

plzz elaborate on exactly wat u need to do..??

if u want the cascading dropdows to be pre populated with th info in the databse, u can easily do so

by binding a desired datasourse to the drop downs....

Sure thing.

I have a list of properties... PropertyA, PropertyB, PropertyC, and Locations, Location1, Location2, Location3...

--Select Property--
--Select Location--

My event will happen at PropertyC and i need to change the date of the event, so i click on Edit Event... All of the fields pre-populate with the information already in the database from when i created the event... I dont know how to select the selected item in the CascadingDropDownlist...  

-- PropertyC--
--Location1--
