Thank you again! I really appreciate that you took the time to explain this to me (and all the other readers of the forum). This solved my problem and now I can concentrate on other tasks in my project instead of searching for more examples that doesn’t help (I have searched a lot on different forums). I like your approach when you helped me. Some explanation in text and code example is very helpful when you are stuck and can’t see clearly at your own code.

C#/ObjectDataSource/Gridview DropDownList or CheckBox

Still trying to get my ObjetDataSource project with GridView to work as I would like it to work. I would like the DropDownList to show the value from one of the columns in the GridView? If the value is 0 = “No” or if the value is 1 = “Yes” I have goolgled this but can’t find any good example. Do you have a simple example for the DropDownList (or the CheckBox would work fine too).
