Change Label When Selecting Text In A Combo Box VB.Net

I have a combo box with two selections. When selecting a option from the drop down, I want a label's text to change accordingly above it. Is there an easy way to do this with an event maybe?

I appreciate any replies.

Asp.net

ComboBox

You need to set AutoPostBAck = "true" 

<table>
            <tr>
                <td><asp:ComboBox ID="cmb" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True">
            <asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
            <asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
            </asp:ComboBox></td>

        <td>
            <asp:Label ID="lbl" runat="server"></asp:Label>
        </td>
            </tr>
        </table>

.aspx file (Code behind)

Protected Sub cmb_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles cmb.SelectedIndexChanged
        lbl.Text = cmb.SelectedValue
    End Sub

Asp.net

DropDownList

You need to set AutoPostBAck = "true" 

<table>
            <tr>
                <td><asp:DropDownList ID="ddl" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True">
            <asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
            <asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
            </asp:DropDownList></td>

        <td>
            <asp:Label ID="lbl" runat="server"></asp:Label>
        </td>
            </tr>

Try this

You need to write this code in combobox selectedIndex change event

eg:

Protected Sub DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles DropDownList1.SelectedIndexChanged
        Label1.Text= DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text.ToString()
End Sub

and You need to set DropDownList.AutoPostBack=true in PageLoad Event

change depending on your controls..

Private Sub YourComboBox_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles YourComboBox.Click

    UrLabel.Text = YourComboBox.SelectedValue

End Sub
