Right. Create the user control, let's say ucThreeDropDowns. Drag this
control to the form designer. Now in your code behind initialize that
control Make sure the name of the object matches the ID of the control on
the web form. You will now be able to access the properties of the
dropdowns.
internal ucThreeDropDown uc;
On the OnClick event of the submit button, just use the object to get the
dropdown values. ie. uc.DropDown1.SelectedValue.
