Saving dropdownlist value inside the repeater?

I already retrieved my database(DescriptionCode) on dropdownlist inside on a repeater.

Now, I'm trying to save/add/insert on my database the selected value of dropdownlist but i

failed.

Any assistance gratefully received. Thanks!

 protected void GeneralRepeater_OnItemDataBound(object sender,
                                               RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item ||
            e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
        {
            DropDownList myDDL = (DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("GeneralDDL");
            Diagnosis oDiagnosis = new Diagnosis();
            PlanOfCare oPlanOfCare = new PlanOfCare();
            DataView dv = new DataView(oDiagnosis.GetDiagnosis());
            myDDL.DataSource = PatientDiagnosis1;
            myDDL.DataTextField = "DiagnosisCode";
            myDDL.DataValueField = "DiagnosisCode";
            myDDL.DataBind();

            //PUT AN EMPTY FIELD FOR DROPDOWNLIST
            ListItem LI = new ListItem("", "");
            myDDL.Items.Insert(0, LI);
            myDDL.SelectedValue = "0";



        }
    }


 protected void cmdSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    oPlanofCareSave.DiagnosesCode = //[1]this must the selected value of dropdownlist inside of repater
    PlanSave(ooPlanofCareSave);
}

What about the cmdSave button, is that is inside the Repeater

You need to find out myDDL inside each row and for each of them you need to get this value.

foreach (RepeaterItem rptItem in RepeaterName.Rows)
{
         DropDownList myDDL = (DropDownList)rptItem.FindControl("myDDL");
}

DropDownList myDDL = (DropDownList)GeneralRepeater.Items[indexvalue].FindControl("GeneralDDL");

oPlanofCareSave.DiagnosesCode = myDDL.SelectedValue;

it is easy to do it like that
