Edit RadioButtonList HELP

[sonya9879]

Hi,

I am driving nuts with what it supposed to be a very simple thing:

I have a datalist which pulls out some data from sql server and inside my datalist I have a radiobuttonlist.

<ASPataList id="MyDataList" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" OnUpdateCommand="Update_Command">

First Name: <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "usrFirstName") %>

...

<asp:RadioButtonList class="normal" id="radiostatus" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Value="1">Enable</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="2">Disable</asp:ListItem>
</asp:RadioButtonList>

What I am trying to do is the following; if the value I have on the database (field Name = usrStatus) is 1, then make the <asp:ListItem Value="1" SELECTED>Enable</asp:ListItem> and if the value is 2 then select by default the option Disable. This supposed to be a simple thing to do but I guess its right to assume that the simple stuff is sometimes the most difficult

I hope someone knows the answer to my problem.

thanks a lot

I would suggest posting this in the ASP or ASP.Net forums.

errr, I can use TextPad to write Java, but their website wouldn't have much for programing help.

Are you generating an ASP.Net (aspx) file from within a VB.Net application? Or are you using the Visual Studio interface to write an ASP.Net document?

If you are generating the code from a VB.Net application, it shouldn't be hard, check the value and output the text accordingly. If you are writing an ASP.Net document, I would again suggest posting on the ASP.Net forum.
