Solution 1

Use below select query to fill the drop down.

SQL

select e1.empmanagerid , e2.empname , e2.empid
from Employee E1 inner join Employee E2
on e1.empid = e2.empmanagerid

Solution 2

As i understood
you want to display empmanagerid in dropdown when you type empid in texbox

If that is the case then your query should be as follows

SELECT empmanagerid FROM EMPTABLE WHERE empid='your typed text in textbox'
