Dropdown in GridView template Column

[codingrocks]

I tried to get the Id of a dropdown list in a gridview in my application. But I tried to get using this code... Inside a protected void Function DropDownList ddlFilter = (DropDownList)gvCRMODField.FindControl("ddlFilterCriteria"); But it is showing the value Null on runtime. How can i know the ID of this dropdown using FindControl in the function Any help would be thankful..

It may be for first grid row (Header). I mean to say in case of first row but did you try for second row.
