Usually this is done by filling the 2nd DDL in the onChange handler for the 1st.

hi..

   in the datagrid_onitem changed event just write your code to display the values in the dropdownlist.

     like if ur getting the dropdomlist values from database then u have to write the program(connection to db,retriveing data) in dropdownlist_onitemchanged event

   hope it helps...-Ashok Parchuri

You can do this as I described whether or not the DDLs are in a datagrid. The technique is the same. Where you put the code that loads the data depends on where your controls live.
