cannot bind the ddl in my editable gridview
-
I have a dropdownlist within my editable gridview.The datasource of the gridview is a datatable method which accepts as a parameter the text of the lable of one of the columns in the gridview.I'm using the code below to try this task but it is not working. protected void gvServices_DataBinding(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) {//gvServices is a gridview name if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList)e.Row.Cells[3].FindControl("DDLServType"); Label lbl = (Label)e.Row.Cells[2].FindControl("lblServiceName"); string servicename= lbl.Text; ddl.DataSource = st.getServiceTypes(servicename); ddl.DataBind(); } }

Perhaps if you whip it harder, it will work more ? If you want more meaningful help, you have to tell us 1 - what 'not working' means 2 - if you're sure this code is being called 3 - what happens as you step through the code in the debugger.
