I have a dynamic dropdown list, that gets its titles from a database.
How can I make the titles in the list as hyperlinks to point to files on my root directory dynamically, so that the links are updated in the list when the database is updated?

Thanks

If I'm understanding you correctly, you can set AutoPostBack=True in the dropdown control and then write a sub that "Handles" the OnChange event to point to files in the root directory. The links in the dropdown will be updated every time the dropdown populates from the database.

<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlAreaID" AutoPostBack="True" Runat="server" />

   Private Sub ddlAreaID_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles ddlAreaID.SelectedIndexChanged
           Do your pointing here although I don't understand exactly what you mean by "point". Do you mean open a file, read the contents of a directory, display a sample page from the book?
    End Sub
