hi all,
this is nizam. just today i have joined this group. i want to know how to
bind a dropdownlist to the datagrid in asp.net application.

thankx in advance
nizam.

dear nizam ,
i hope the following code helps you out

<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Country">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblCountry"
Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,
"Country") %>'
Runat="server" />
<asp:dropDownList id="ddlCountry"
DataSource="<%# BindTheCountry() %>"
OnPreRender="SetDropDownIndex"
DataTextField="Country"
DataValueField="Country"
runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>

you can also bind the data source in the code behind but then you have
to get the control first from the grid.

Hi nizam,

If you're working with ASP.Net, you'll get better information from the
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet newsgroup.
