hi,

you can the selection of the user from drop down list as follows:

I hope you have a submit/save button to store the registration data.

1)

In the Codebehind page (C#)


void btnSubmit_Click(object sender,EventArgs e)
{
string strSelected= ddlYourDropDownList.SelectedValue ;
pass strSelected to your Data Layer
}

2) In the Data Layer / or whatever class you are using to store data:

void SaveData(string strSeleted)
{
string strSql = "INSERT INTO YourTableName(YourColumnName) VALUES(" + "'" + strSeleted +"')"
SqlConnection Connection= new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["YourConnectionStringName"].ConnectionString);
SqlCommand Command=new SqlCommand();
Command.CommandText = strSql ;
Command.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
Command.Connection = Connection;

Command.Connection.Open();
int res= Command.ExecuteNonQuery(); // res will give you the number of rows affected.
Command.Dispose();
Connection.Dispose();

}

I hope this is your requirement.
