dropdown in a datagrid

[GaryB]

I can put a dropdown in a grid column, databind it, and it will work but how
can I get the itemchanged event so that I can do something with it?
thanks,
G

this has been covered a lot in here, you should do a search before posting.
an overview of the process involves adding the control to the grid and
hooking up the event handler. you will need to add the rebind code on each
post since the control embedded in the webform occurs too late in the
pipeline to participate in viewstate.

Hi Gary,

I'm viewing the issue and found that it is a duplicated one with another
thread titled:

"dropdown in a grid" in the
Newsgroups: microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

I've posted my reply there and I'd appreciate if you have a look. In
addition, if you feel it convenient that we continue to discuss in that
one, please feel free to followup there. Thanks.

Answer for ur query
<ItemTemplate>

<aspropDownList CssClass="dropdown" ID="ddl"
DataTextField= "Desc"
DataValueField= "ID" Runat="server"
OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddl_SelectedIndexChanged()"/>

</ItemTemplate>


In the Code behind write the method as

public void ddl_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
// Identify sender.SelectedValue after typecasting it
here.
}


I am also facing with one more problem with datagrid.

I am using two Drodowns with ASP.NET Datagrid/(ASP.20
GridView) . What i want is , on selecting the first
dropdown i want to populate the second dropdown based on
the selection. The dropdown control is places in
ItemTemplate.

Govind.
