Dropdown List in a DataGrid

I have a datagrid control in an .aspx page which gets its values from a
Sql Server table. I need to add a dropdown list control to the edit
column. The dropdown list needs to contain a list of available choices
from another table, but the selected choice needs to be whatever is the
current referenced value the original table. Can anybody point me in the
right direction for this? Thanks...

I have a datagrid that contains a dropdown list that is part of an EditItemTemplate. I need to run some code when the dropdown list builds in order to preselect an item in the list. Preselecting the item is not the problem. The problem is that the dropdown object is not instantiated at the point at which the Edit button is clicked, or at any other obvious step in the process. In other words, when a user clicks the Edit (EditCommand)...

I know it's been asked a million times before, but I still can't seem to find an answer that works. I've got a dropdown list in the footer template of a datagrid. The dropdown list databinds, but I can't seem to add a blank item to the top of the dropdown list. I've tried using the code to add this by placing it in both the page_load and the datagrid.itemDataBound event, but neither seems to work. I've also referenced the control by
