dynamic drop downs and field type

[realhorrorshow]

with the below line of code the correct records do not become selected in the dropdown box when the field type of 'rsJobNo.Fields.Item("JobNo&quot' is an integer,but it does as a varchar. this is causing problems, does anyone have a
suggestion?

<select name=&quot;JobNo&quot;>
<%
While (NOT rsJobNo.EOF)
%>
<option value=&quot;<%=(rsJobNo.Fields.Item(&quot;JobNo&quot.Value)%>&quot; <% if
((rsJobNo.Fields.Item(&quot;JobNo&quot.Value)=(rsTimeSheet.Fields.Item(&quot;JobNo&quot.Value))
Then Response.Write(&quot;SELECTED&quot
%>><%=(rsJobNo.Fields.Item(&quot;JobNo&quot.Value)%>.
<%=(rsJobNo.Fields.Item(&quot;Title&quot.Value)%></option>
<%
rsJobNo.MoveNext()
Wend
If (rsJobNo.CursorType > 0) Then
rsJobNo.MoveFirst
Else
rsJobNo.Requery
End If
%>
</select>

Thanks
