I have created a module and have some settings on the settings.ascx defined and saving the info. 2 of these are dropdownlists. Both are saving the data, one is retrieving it. I have both of them coded exactly the same but the one just will not retrieve the data. I have checked the database and the setting is stored in there for both.

I am retrieving all of them like below.

    Dim HCtxtTo As DateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(Me.Settings("HCtxtTo"))
    Dim HCtxtFrom As DateTime = Convert.ToDateTime(Me.Settings("HCtxtFrom"))
    Dim HCdropVenues As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Me.Settings("HCdropVenues"))
    Dim HCdropRegions As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Me.Settings("HCdropRegions"))

HCdropVenues
 returns 0 every time, even though the setting in the DB is 2. 

Has anyone ran across anything like this before? Any idea why it is doing this?
