pass my dropdownlist

hey all,
i'm in vs2005 designer view editing a formview's edit template. i have a
dropdownlist and i'm trying to bind the SelectedValue to a custom expression
.
i was wondering if it is possible to pass the dropdownlist object down to th
e
code-behind? i tried using the this keyword but that didn't work.
thanks,
rodcharCan you please eloborate a little more?
Are you trying to access the Dropdownlist in the designer or in some
routine in the code behind?
If it is in the code behind of the samepage where the dropdown is declared,
I do not see any problem accessing it.
Can you give an example of your code?
