I am getting the selectected item value -1 in dropdown list and not showing the actual value



  if (ddlperiodunit.Text.Trim() != "Till Further Order")
{
if (txtDt.Text.Trim() == "")
{
MessageBox("DEBARMENT START DT CAN NOT BE BLANK");
txtDt.Focus();
return;
}
if (TxtDebarmentPrd.Text.Trim() == "" || TxtDebarmentPrd.Text.Trim() == "0")
{
MessageBox("DEBARMENT PERIOD CAN NOT BE BLANK");
TxtDebarmentPrd.Focus();
return;
}
}
