I do not get erros.. I detected that this code doesn't work first because I have put it into a try catch and it executes teh catch, also because I do not get the data into the drop down list. I do not understand what's the problem, maybe I am using the dataset in the wrong way! do you have any documentation of how I can use datasets to fill dropdown lists?
