  I'm a novice in asp.net. I tried using a web user control with Dropdownlistbox and through with this dropdownlistbox I will choose any item on the list. Secondly, I create a new web form, through this web form (webform1.aspx)  I  drag my web user control. What I want now is, I want to get the value of selectedvalue from my dropdownlistbox from my web user control by retrieving the value on my webform1.aspx hoping somebody could help me with this problem.
  

   

  Thanks

  <asp:ListItem Value="ValueItemTwo">TextItemTwo</asp:ListItem>

  </asp:DropDownList>

  <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>

  <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" onclick="Button1_Click" />

  Dear Rajesh,

  I appreciate your solution regarding my problem and you got the idea what I want.  Unfortunately, when I try your solution by copying and paste and run your solution, the getvalue property of usercontrol11. show a null value in form1.cs . Hoping you could a better solution with this problem and appreciate your effort of helping me.
  

   Thanks
