drop down list filter web part in sharepoint is not getting exported. Any suggestions?

Question

Hi all,

I would like to implement filtering on my sharepoint list. My list is having title and description columns and i would like to poulate the ASP.NET dropdown list control with titles and when i select the title i would like to show the description. I have followed the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc300163(office.12).aspx to implment this. I have created a blank aspx page in sharepoint designer and followed the same steps. everything works fine but when i export the webpart, only description part is getting exported . I cannot see the drop down on the page.(but when i preview it on the browser i can see both) Can anyone please help me with this. Please let me know if something is not clear.It's very urgent. Please help me.

Thanks, Neelima

In your question you say that you are creating a aspx page and then exporting a webpart.

It could be that you are placing the drop down on one thing and exporting another.
