Hi I want to populate a text box from a stored table I have this for the data

With DropDownList1
.DataSource = ds.Tables("property")
.DisplayMember = "propRef"
.ValueMember = "propRef"
.SelectedIndex = 0
End With

"property" holds all the info from the db when the user changes the dropdown list I want a text box to display additional info

Dim connString As String = "Data Source=*****;Initial Catalog=****;Integrated Security=True"
        Dim conn As New SqlConnection(connString)

        Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM property WHERE (availible=1)"
        Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(strSQL, conn)
        Dim ds As New DataSet
        da.Fill(ds, "property")

        With DownList1
            .DataSource = ds.Tables("property")
            .DisplayMember = "propRef"
            .ValueMember = "propRef"
            .SelectedIndex = 0
        End With

the additional columns I want to display are flatNo, houseNo and street

So something like this on the dropdown list change
.DataSource = ds.Tables("property")

If (Not Me.RadDropDownList1.SelectedValue Is Nothing) Then
            Me.TextBox12.Text = "flatNo "+" houseNo "+" street" 
      End If

anyone have an idea how I can get this to work

thanks

Where do you hold these data?
