It,s very simple you need to append all that values to a single column in sql query and bind that column to value field of dropdownlist.Then by the help of split fuction you can get all the value...

Example-
select name + '-' + branch + '-' + rollno as value from yourtablename
here you can bind the value column to the dropdownlist value field.
on the C# page use code as as below

C#

var value= ddl.SelectedValue.Split('-').ToList();
             String  name=lowerUpperval[0];
             String  branch= lowerUpperval[1];
             String  rollno=lowerUpperval[2];

Enjoy
Happy Codding!!!

First get a datatable from the database...

Then if your database contains two columns, one named "Text" and one named "Value"
you just say

yourDropDownList.DataSource = yourDataTable;
yourDropDownList.DataTextField = "Text";
yourDropDownList.DataValueField = "Value";
yourDropDownList.DataBind();
