[Solved] GridBoundColumn 'SetupFilterControls' event not fired

[Jon F]

I have extended the GridBoundColumn and am adding a DropDownList in the 'SetupFilterControls' method.  The 'OnSelectedIndexChanged' event is never fired.  What should I be checking?

        protected override void SetupFilterControls(TableCell cell)
        {
            base.SetupFilterControls(cell);
            cell.Controls.RemoveAt(0);

            DropDownList ddl = new DropDownList();
            ddl.AutoPostBack = true;
            ddl.ID = "fltr" + DataField;
            ddl.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(junk_SelectedIndexChanged);

            cell.Controls.AddAt(0, ddl);
            cell.Controls.RemoveAt(1);

            ddl.DataSource = Owner.DataSource;
            ddl.DataTextField = DataField;
            ddl.DataValueField = DataField;
            ddl.DataBind();
        }

The 'junk_SelectedIndexChanged' never gets called...
