Try:
For value selected:
myLabel.Text = myDropdown.SelectedValue;

For text selected:
myLabel.Text = myDropdown.SelectedText;

For Web, selected text:
myLabel.Text = myDropdown.SelectedItem.Text;

Use debugger! You are surely missing out something. Might be rebinding the dropdownlist before the event is raised.
