<li>
                        <asp:Label ID="lbSurname" runat="server" Text="Surname: " AssociatedControlID="lstSurname"> </asp:Label>
                        <telerik:RadComboBox ID="lstSurname" runat="server" ReadOnly="true" DataTextField="Family"
                            DataValueField="Family" AppendDataBoundItems="True" AllowCustomText="True" MarkFirstMatch="True"
                            OnSelectedIndexChanged="lstSurname_SelectedIndexChanged" AutoPostBack="True" CausesValidation="False">
                        </telerik:RadComboBox>
                        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RFV_lstSurname" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Personal"
                            ControlToValidate="lstSurname" ErrorMessage="Please enter Surname">*</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
                    </li>
                    <li>
                        <asp:Label ID="lbFname" runat="server" Text="First Name: " AssociatedControlID="lstFirst"> </asp:Label>
                        <telerik:RadComboBox ID="lstFirst" runat="server" ReadOnly="true" DataTextField="First"
                            DataValueField="First" AppendDataBoundItems="True" AllowCustomText="True" MarkFirstMatch="True"
                            AutoPostBack="True" CausesValidation="False"
                            onselectedindexchanged="lstFirst_SelectedIndexChanged">
                        </telerik:RadComboBox>
                        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RFV_lstFirst" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Personal"
                            ControlToValidate="lstFirst" ErrorMessage="Please enter First Name">*</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
                    </li>

<li><asp:Label ID="lbJobTitle" runat="server" Text="Job Title:"
                            AssociatedControlID="txtJob"></asp:Label>
<telerik:RadTextBox ID="txtJob" runat="server" MaxLength="150" Width="200px"></telerik:RadTextBox>
/li>

In form.aspx.cs file

protected void lstFirst_SelectedIndexChanged(object o, RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            string First = lstFirst.SelectedItem.Text;
            string family = lstSurname.SelectedItem.Text;
            var query = from x in dc.tblEmp
                        where x.First.ToLower() == First.ToLower() && x.Family.ToLower() == family.ToLower()
                        orderby x.Family
                        select new
                        {
                            Job = x.Job_Title
                        };
************txtJob.Text = query;    ************
        }

How do I bind data to Textbox?
 I am selecting Surname and Firstname to fire query to get Job Title. I only want to display in textbox .
Can anyone help me find solution?
Thanks in advance

Hello Sucheta,

You can bind RadTextBox in the same way as the regular ASP.NET TextBox control. Data-binding expressions are contained within <%# and %> delimiters and use the Eval and Bind functions. The Eval function is used to define one-way (read-only) binding. The Bind function is used for two-way (updatable) binding.

More info is available here:
