Thanks for your suggestion but I still have some problem
this is the error
System.NullReferenceException: Reference to an Object not setted on a
object instance
I have on the row numer 5 of the following function :
void BindComboTipoPartita(Object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e)
{
dsCampi.Tables.Add("TipoPartita");
OleDbDataAdapter daTipoPartita = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT
IDTipoPartita, DescrizioneTipoPartita from TipoPartita" ,OleDbconn);
daTipoPartita.Fill(dsCampi,"TipoPartita");
DropDownList ComboTipoPartita_DDL =
(DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("ComboTipoPartita ");
ComboTipoPartita_DDL.DataSource=dsCampi.Tables["TipoPartita"];
ComboTipoPartita_DDL.DataBind();
}
and this is the datalist defined in the way you suggest :
<ASP:DataList id="MyDataCampi" runat="server" HorizontalAlign="Center"
RepeatDirection="Horizontal" RepeatColumns="1"
OnEditCommand="Edit_Command" OnUpdateCommand="Update_Command"
OnDeleteCommand="Delete_Command"
OnCancelCommand="Cancel_Command" OnItemDataBound="BindComboTipoPartita"
<HeaderTemplate>
<table width="100%" style="font: 8pt verdana">
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<tr style="background-color:CCFF99">
<td>
<asp:DropDownList id="ComboTipoPartita" runat="server"
DataValueField="IDTipoPartita"
DataTextField="DescrizioneTipoPartita"</asp:DropDownList>
</td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</ASP:DataList>
Have you any idea to solve the problem ???
Thanks ....

ItemDataBound event.

news:ew*************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... Good Morning,
In my web page I've a datalist that is sourced by a database,
the problem is that I want that one of the column of the datalist
contain a dropdownbox
that also is sourced by a table in the database.
<asp:DropDownList id="ComboTipoPartita" runat="server"
DataValueField="IDTipoPartita"
DataTextField="DescrizioneTipoPartita"
DataSource="<% BindComboTipoPartita() %>" ></asp:DropDownList>
this seems impossible in aspx c# , the error tells :
" 'DataSource' property could be set just at runtime and cannot be
declared "
I'm interested to solve my problem of insert a dropdownlist powered by a
db inside a row of the datalist,
how I can achieve this ??
Many thanks.
