Hello Everyone, I would like to know how to set dropdownlist values after selecting the gridview row. I tried all the possibilities but it doesn't set to the selected value instead it always points to the initial item. Below is my piece of code. //ddlid.SelectedItem.Value = grdEmployee.SelectedRow.Cells[1].ToString(); // ddlname.SelectedItem.Value = grdEmployee.SelectedRow.Cells[3].ToString(); // txtSal.Text = grdEmployee.SelectedRow.Cells[4].Text; Thanks in advance.

Hi
do as below:-
1.add row command event

protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "Select")
        {
}
}

2.Inside row command at first call dropdownlidt bind method
3.Then select the value whatever you gridviewselected row returns
