Why is my dropdown list not working?

[nevergiveup01]

Hello, I have a details view that updates all fields except my dropdown list selection..is there an extra step I missed when adding a dropdown selection to a template in edit mode of the details view? My table is called tblServiceQuote which has a field called TypeID.. TypeID is a foreign key in tblServiceType..TblServiceType has TypeID and Type.. I set the dropdown list to pull typeID and type and only show type but bind Typid to tblServiceQuote..I have done this in many other clients but cant get it to work in ASP..this seems simple but yet it will not work for me? What am I missing? Below is my code..By the way I only know VB not C#..

in your DDL

<aspropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" AutoPostBack="True" DataTextField="Type" DataValueField="TypeID"></aspropDownList>

why are u posting back on change? you dont have an event tied to it as far as i can see.

take out AutoPostBack="True" and see if that helps??
