  Hi,

  you can make use of ControlParameter:

  <SelectParameters>
      <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="EmployeesDropDownList" PropertyName="SelectedValue"
          Name="EmpID" Type="Int32" DefaultValue="0" />
  </SelectParameters>
  

  Sample taken from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z72eefad.aspx.

  Hi raushankarn,

  According to your description, as far as I know, you could use ControlParameter to filter the data, also you could use FilterParameters to filter the data. Here are three samples, please check:

  Using Parameterized Queries with the SqlDataSource (C#):

  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-forms/overview/data-access/accessing-the-database-directly-from-an-aspnet-page/using-parameterized-queries-with-the-sqldatasource-cs 

  Using Parameters with Data Source Controls for Filtering:

  https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xt50s8kz.aspx 

  Filter GridView with DropDownList using FilterExpression in SqlDataSource in ASP.Net:

  https://www.aspsnippets.com/Articles/Filter-GridView-with-DropDownList-using-FilterExpression-in-SqlDataSource-in-ASPNet.aspx
