Remarks

This property is used with the ListBoundField and ListDisplayField properties to control how data is displayed in a list box or combo box. For example, consider a list box that displays product names in a section called Order Details. The recordset behind the Order Details section includes a field named ProductID that represents the product for a given Order Detail record. But instead of displaying ProductID in a textbox, the page author wants to display product names in a dropdown list box. The list box can be filled with a recordset definition named Products which contains fields called ProdID and ProductName from the Product table. The properties of this list box element would be set as shown in the following table.
