将DropDownList1.SelectedValue =*** 换成
DropDownList1.SelectedIndex = DropDownList1.Items.IndexOf(DropDownList1.Items.FindByValue("***"));
即可，“***”为默认的值，
如：
DropDownList1.SelectedValue = rs["name"].ToString()；
换成
DropDownList1.SelectedIndex = DropDownList1.Items.IndexOf(DropDownList1.Items.FindByValue(rs["name"].ToString()));
