How to display the Error Message in Asp.Net Page using C#?

Question

I have a couple of dropdown boxex in my aspx page and i have search button also.

if the user clicks the "search" button without selecting any of the dropdown box, i want to display message like "Please select any Value"

My Page is created dynamically, all the controls are dynamically created. and i dont want to display the error message using any of the static aspx page controls like (Text Box, label or etc...)

and I want to display the error message from some other .cs file which i am referring in my aspx.cs file.

I have tried like the below: However it is not working.

if (first!= "-- Select The Item --" || second != "-- Select The Item --")
            {
                //Do Something
            }
            else
            {

                throw new Exception("Please select any Filter Type");
            }

Assuming dd1 and dd2 are DropDownList control IDs, you could check the SelectedIndex property:

if (dd1.SelectedIndex != 0 || dd2.SelectedIndex != 0)
{
    //Do Something
}
else
{

    throw new Exception("Please select any Filter Type");
}
