please help in accessing the dropdownlist in codebehind
hi.
i am updating my table by placing datailsview in the webpage and giving it a datasource, i have introduced a dropdownlist in the middle of bounded control and want it to be filled according to my given instruction, but the dropdownlist is not accessible via ID in codebehind.
like e.g
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="drpdownlist" DataSourceID="deptsource" Width="150px" DataTextField="deptname" DataValueField="deptid" runat="server">
</asp:DropDownList>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
thx in advance.
