What is the error? Make sure there is a space between WHERE

What language is your data? Maybe you need "N" before DDLItem.Text and before updateitem.toString():

"update Product set BalanceOnStock= N'" + updateitem.ToString() + "' where ProHead=N'" + DDLItem.SelectedItem.Text + "'";

Try something like this. I typed this off the top of my head so it may need some tweaking.

C#

SqlConnection conn = null;
Sqlmmand cmd = new SqlCommand(conn);
string ddlItem = "";
if (DDLItem.SelectedItem != null)
{
    ddlItem = (Cast to whatever type it is)DDLItem.SelectedItem.Text;
}
if (ddlItem != "")
{
    try
    {
        conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
        cmd = new SqlCommand(conn);
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
        foreach (ListItem LBox4Item in ListBox4.Items)
        {
            ListBox5.Items.Add(LBox4Item);
            int value = LBox4Item.ToString();
            // In the code you originally posted, you're adding everything in Listbox5 everytime 
            // you add something to Listbox5. I'm almost positive this isn't what you wanted to to.
            // So, just add the item that was recently added.
            string query = string.Format("update Product set BalanceOnStock='{0}' where ProHead='{1}'", value.ToString(), ddlItem);
            cmd.CommandText = query;
            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        }
    }
    catch(Exception ex)
    {
        // determine your exception here
    }
    finally
    {
        if (conn != null)
        {
            conn.Close();
        }
    } 
}
