Solution 1

If you read the query string, you can do whatever you like with the data you pull from there.

Solution 2

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
dropDownList1.SelectedValue = Request.QueryString[querystring];
}

This is provided that the Value field property of the DropDownList is set to values of the status(s) you are passing thru the querystring.

Suppose you having one textbox on page1.aspx
then on Button Click

C#

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string status = TextBox1.Text;
        Response.Redirect("page2.aspx?status="+status+"");
    }

and on page2.aspx on page_load

C#

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DropDownList1.Items.Add(Request.QueryString["status"].ToString());
    }

Do this u'll Get the value of textbox on page2.aspx in dropdownlist :)
