I'm getting there!!!!
I've used the artical http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/050801-1.shtml
to create my dropdown list from a database. The DDL gets populated! The
artical says, "then set the index as you normally would". Well, what can i
say i can't figure out how to set it.
any ideas would be great!
thanks

You set the index like this:
dropdown.SelectedIndex = 0; // or whatever value you want 1,2,3.

thanks for answering.
that will not work because the dropdown list is a child control of the
datagrid. I tried it and i gives me a run time error. even afteri manuelly
decoarred it a protected with events....
but thanks! and please let me know if i'm wrong about this!

How did you get a hold of the DropDownList? Did you use the FindControl
method?
