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 code-behind, e.g.:
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="drpdownlist" DataSourceID="deptsource" Width="150px" DataTextField="deptname" DataValueField="deptid" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
