Hello,

Try accessing the DropDownColumn as shown below.
C#:

void RadGrid1_UpdateCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
 GridEditableItem item = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
 GridEditManager editMan = item.EditManager;
 GridDropDownColumnEditor editor = (GridDropDownColumnEditor)editMan.GetColumnEditor("UniqueName");
 string value = editor.SelectedValue.ToString();
}

Thanks,
Shinu.
