AutoPostback DropDownList in EditItemTemplate

[Guest]

I have a dropdownlist as an item in my edititemtemplate.
I need to populate a texbox in the same edititemtemplate with the contents
of the dropdown.

Still with me?

I have set autopostback on the dropdown and have set the
onselectedindexchanged event to catch the change.

Still with me???

I know the event fires because it traces and goes bang if because I cannot
find the relevant controls.

Now how do I get at the controls in the template to get the value and
populate my textbox.

Grateful for any help

Alan

Sorry Found the answer, as is often the way, as soon as I posted the
message.

Cheers to anyone who thought of responding.

FYI for anyone stuck on a similar problem

Dim DDL As DropDownList

Dim TB As TextBox

DDL =
DataGrid1.Items.Item(DataGrid1.EditItemIndex).FindControl("DropDownList1")

TB = DataGrid1.Items.Item(DataGrid1.EditItemIndex).FindControl("TextBox1")

TB.Text = DDL.SelectedItem.Text

in the dropdownlist postback event
works a treat
