Retrieve value of changed dropdown

[Laura]

I have a grid edit form.
In this form, I have a dropdown list of packages. Based on this list, 
I embed a grid of the items in a particular package.

I want a user to select a package the dropdown from the list, and without clicking ok,
the embedded grid should re-populate.

I do not see what is getting fired when the user changes the packages field in
the dropdown list. I have Onselectedindexchanged but my debugger
does not go into it when the dropdown is changed.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Laura

Try like this..change the columns names and grid names as requried

protected void GridName_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
GridEditableItem edititem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;

          
            RadComboBox ddl1 = (RadComboBox)edititem["columnname"].Controls[0];

            //attach SelectedIndexChanged event for the combobox control
            ddl1 .AutoPostBack = true;
            ddl1 .SelectedIndexChanged += new RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventHandler(ddl1 _SelectedIndexChanged);
        }

void ddl1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        //first reference the edited grid item through the NamingContainer attribute
        GridEditableItem editedItem = (sender as RadComboBox).NamingContainer as GridEditableItem;

   (editedItem["columnname"].Controls[0] as RadComboBox).SelectedItem.Text;
}

Hi,

Try the code to update the  embedded grid in the edit form on the selected index changed evnet of the dropdownlist.

public void  DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
         GridEditableItem editedItem = (sender as DropDownList1).NamingContainer as GridEditableItem;
        DropDownList ddl=(DropDownList)sender;
       if(ddl.SelectedItem.Text=="Package1")
        (editedItem.FindControl("RadGrid1")  as RadGrid).MasterTableview.Rebind();

}

Thanks,
Princy
