CheckedListBox Item Selection

I have created a site that allows users to see a list of files that currently reside on my FTP site.

I have got the files appearing but when I select one and click download, it is not registering that I have selected an item.

At the moment I am using:

If CheckBoxList1.SelectedItem.Value = "" Then
   MsgBox("A file needs to be selected...!")
End If

'NOTE - A SELECTION ISN'T BEING RECORDED BY THE PROGRAM!!'

If CheckBoxList1.SelectedItem.Value <> "" The开发者_运维知识库n

I think that it is not registering the selection being made, because the item being selected is not a string value.

But I am not sure what to set this as.

It would help if you provided the actual code being used to attach the selection / change handler as well as the event method body.

I'm guessing your attaching to the checkbox SelectedIndexChanged event. If that's the case then make sure that you have actually bound a "value" to the checkbox list, ensure that you are using the "DataTextField"and "DataValueField" properties instead of just default binding the checkboxlist to a collection.
