I am using a listbox control to display a list of names from a database. They are being loaded using a dataReader, and the names display properly. But for some reason, when the names are clicked and selected, the selectedIndexChanged event does not fire, and the selected index value remains -1. Has anyone seen this before, and have an idea of how to fix.

I appreciate the help.

Is your databind call to this list conditional based on IsPostback? If you bind the list every time you load the page, you'll essentially reset the list control. This results in no Changed event.

If Not IsPostback Then
    'Do databind
End If

Work smarter, not harder.

to enable fire for the event selectedIndexChanged you have to modify the property for listbox.autoPostback to true
