How do I retain datas when i have autopostback

[drewgeezmoe]

Hi,

I have several textboxes and dropdown menus. I need to use autopostback to one of the dropdown menus, the problem is i loose all the date that was inputed in the other fields. How do i retain these data s?

Textboxes have a property called EnableViewState which when set to true causes the control to automatically save its state for round-trips. This property is set to true by default, so unless you changed it, you may be doing something else to cause the textboxes to loose their values.

Are you doing anything during the page load?

Chances are you set the textboxes and dropdown values in the page_Load event and they are repopulated when the page is posted back.

If that is the case, check for post back:

If not IsPostBack then

... build the controls ...

End If
