Could Not read Value field From Client Side

[Vijay Kerji]

Hi All,

I have a drop down list whose Value field is bound to a column in the
Dataset.
How to read this value at client side function???

When I used the following code, it returns the text field value
instead of value field.

var Value = document.all("DropDownList_ProgramFamily").children(document.all("DropDownList_ProgramFamily").selectedItem).value


Any help is appreciated
