I'm new in ASP.NET programming and I'm using a DetailsView to view/edit
colums in a SQLServer table.
Is there a way to reference the actual displayed value of a column and use
it to select a group of records from a different table?
Can I have an example in VB.NET?

If I use a DropdownList instead of a DetailsView I can reference the current
selected value as <asp:parameter .... PropertyName="SelectedValue" ...

What about DetailsView control?

There was no way for you to know it (except maybe by browsing through
some
of the previous questions before posting yours - always a recommended
practice), but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
ASP.Net is a different technology from classic ASP.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who
can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a newsgroup where the dotnet-savvy people hang out. I
suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.
