null value when inserting/updating from EditItemTemplate field

[xazos79]

Hi All,

I currenly have a GridView control i'm using to update values in a
database. The directly bound fields update fine. However, there are a
couple of places where i use EditItemTemplate fields instead of a
direct databind. Reason being that i have dropdown lists there instead
to aid readability when updating/adding a record. The dropdownlists
contain the appropriate values, however when I insert or update i get a
null value exception. The insert/update action is not picking up the
values from the dropdown lists.

If anyone can help me with this i'd be grateful!

Thanks,

Sam
