 One simple question: could you *EVER* get the "Your selected index is
 0"  to display the pay by running this sample test?

+Tony, of course. We all see that working. That's why the
+bug was *closed*.
+
+I can reproduce your issue, ***if I turn the view state off***
+Even then, it's still not a bug, because MS.NET behaves like
+that.
+
+Your workaround "if ( index != this.SelectedIndex || index == 0 )"
+shows that SelectedIndex, respectively the Items collection,
+doesn't persist its state on your machine. The workaround just
+cures some obscure symptoms.
+
+Unless you provide another test case, we can't do anything
+about it.
