[Solved] Binding dropdown in grid depending what is selected in another dropdown in the grid

[Michael]

I need to bind a dropdown list depending on what is selected in another dropdown. I know i need to attach a selectedindexchanged event to the first dropdown but i am unsure on how to reference the second the dropdown to rebind within the selectedindexchanged event. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Try the following code to achieve your scenario.
C#:

protected void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList)sender;
       GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)ddl.NamingContainer;
       DropDownList ddl1 = (DropDownList)item.FindControl("DropDownList2");
   }

Thanks,
Shinu
