Thank you for your response. My current project has a postback occuring and I am setting the text of the radtoolbardropdown in the post back. What I need is to get rid of the postback and do this client side. Below is the aspx and .cs changes I made (I do not seem to be allowed to upload the entire zip to you otherwise I would do that). Thank for you for your help!
