I have a  RadGrid using GridDropDownColumn with two columns. Column1: Status and Column2: CompleteDate
 Column1: Status  has three items in the dropdown--->Not Started, In-Progress and Completed
Column2 is using RadDatePicker as DbSelectedDate

I need a way when Completed is selected from the Column1:status, Column2: CompleteDate should default to today's date and allow the user the opportunity to change it

 I am using the code below but missing alot. Any help out there.

   if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
       {
        GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
          RadComboBox list = (e.Item as GridEditableItem)["MitigationStatusID"].Controls[7] as RadComboBox;
       //attach SelectedIndexChanged event for the combobox control
          list.AutoPostBack = true;
         list.SelectedIndexChanged += new RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventHandler(list_SelectedIndexChanged);           
     }

 }
 void list_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
 
   GridEditableItem editedItem = (sender as RadComboBox).NamingContainer as GridEditableItem;

Hi Princy,
Thanks for your help in advance. For some reasons when I use ItemCreated, the code doesn't fire at all on that event Handler. When I use ItemDataBound it does fire but the SelectedIndexChanged block doesn't   get hit. I am adding the html portion if it will help

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Completion Date" UniqueName="CompletionDate">
<ItemTemplate>
 <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblCompletionDate" Text='<%# String.Format("{0:d}" , Eval("CompletionDate")) %>'>
</asp:Label>&nbsp;
 </ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
 <br />
<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="picker2" runat="server" DbSelectedDate='<%# Bind("CompletionDate") %>'>
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

<telerik:GridDropDownColumn DataField="MitigationStatusID" DataSourceID="statusDataSource"
   HeaderStyle-Width="75px" DataType="System.Int32" DefaultInsertValue="" HeaderText="Status"
   ListTextField="Status" ListValueField="MitigationStatusID" SortExpression="MitigationStatusID"
   UniqueName="MitigationStatusID"  ItemStyle-Width="75px">
</telerik:GridDropDownColumn>

Hi Princy,
Thanks. It was my fault. I Misspelled the  ItemCreated EventHandler signature. Is working
