Matching date values w/ dropdown values

In my program, I have 6 ddl's filled programatically with date info (month, day & year) in my client-side code. Based on a selection in a listbox, the ddl's show date info for the selection based on a SQL SELECT statement in my (VB) server-side code; the problem is the date parts returned had no value. I wanted to match what was returned with values I had put in the dropdowns programatically. For example, if the day from SQL was the 3rd, I'd want it to show up in the list at the 3 that I've inserted on client-side, like so:<br><br>1<br>2<br>3 <--<br>4<br>5<br><br>Right now it comes up like this:<br><br>3 <--<br>1<br>2<br>3<br>4<br>5<br><img src="/forum/emoticons/shakehead.gif" alt="shakehead"> <br>How can this be corrected?

In case anyone's confused, here's the pertinent code I have. First the vb stuff:<br><div class="msgQuoteWrap"><div class="msgCode"><br>Dim dateInfo As New System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo()<br>Dim myDate As DateTime = Trim(objSQLMemoList.returnDataViewValue(intTheSele ctedIndex)("mgt_effectiveStartDate").ToString())<br>ddlMonth.SelectedItem.Text = dateInfo.GetMonthName(myDate.Month)<br>ddlDay.SelectedItem.Text = myDate.Day<br>ddlYear.SelectedItem.Text = myDate.Year<br><br>Dim myDate2 As DateTime = Trim(objSQLMemoList.returnDataViewValue(intTheSele ctedIndex)("mgt_effectiveEndDate").ToString())<br>ddlMonth2.SelectedItem.Text = dateInfo.GetMonthName(myDate2.Month)<br>ddlDay2.SelectedItem.Text = myDate2.Day<br>ddlYear2.SelectedItem.Text = myDate2.Year<br></div></div><br><br>Apparently I can't post the aspx tags here. <img src="/forum/emoticons/nono.gif" alt="nono"> So let me describe; I have hard coded values for my ddl's for the months and days and years. I want the SQL values to match with what I've hard-coded.
