    <p>I'm just learning asp.net so I may be wrong on how I'm doing this so let me know if there is a better way.</p> <p>I have a "portal", where a user logs in and then they have a dropdownlist of all their sites they manage.</p> <p>I want to populate the dropdown box using a stored proc I created which is based on the user logged in.</p> <p>I used the built in createuserWizard which stores the users in the database. I created another table that has all the sites and a 3rd table to link the sites and users together.</p> <p>Here is the dropdown list</p> <pre><code>&lt;code&gt; &lt;asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownListAClient" runat="server" OnSelectedIndexChanged="DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged" DataSourceID="SqlDataSourceSitePicker" DataTextField="SiteName" DataValueField="SiteName"&gt; &lt;/asp:DropDownList&gt; &lt;asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSourceSitePicker" runat="server" ConnectionString="&lt;%$ ConnectionStrings:MainAppDB %&gt;" SelectCommand="portal_SitePicker" SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure"&gt; &lt;SelectParameters&gt; &lt;asp:Parameter Name="portaluserid" Type="String" /&gt; &lt;/SelectParameters&gt; &lt;/asp:SqlDataSource&gt; &lt;/code&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is the code for the stored procedure</p> <pre><code>&lt;code&gt; ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[portal_SitePicker] -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @portaluserid varchar AS BEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements. SET NOCOUNT ON; -- Insert statements for procedure here SELECT SiteName FROM dbo.aspnet_UserMap, dbo.Sites WHERE dbo.Sites.SiteID = dbo.aspnet_UserMap.SiteID and dbo.aspnet_UserMap.UserID = @portaluserid END &lt;/code&gt; </code></pre> <p>If I test the stored proc it pulls the correct sites, but I'm not sure how to get the userid value from the current logged in user.</p> <p>Any suggestions?</p>

    2. COThanks, I changed my StoredProc to use the username instead of ID. I also added <asp:FormParameter FormField="Page.User.Identity.Name" Name="portaluserid" Type="String" /> to my sqldatasource. Yet when the page loads, the drop downbox is empty. I must be missing a step.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
