Hi Friends,

I have tried grid view like what you told.
when i am using, it shows both controls but i need
either one from both.

column returned values means displayed lable control.
column returned NULL value means it shows dropdownlist.

already mensioned sample output.

This is my Grid...


<asp:GridView ID="gridFeesType" runat="server" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333"
GridLines="None" AutoGenerateColumns="False" OnRowEditing="gridFeesType_RowEditing"
OnRowCancelingEdit="gridFeesType_RowCancelingEdit" OnRowUpdating="gridFeesType_RowUpdating"
OnRowDeleting="gridFeesType_RowDeleting">
<FooterStyle BackColor="#507CD1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<RowStyle BackColor="#EFF3FB" />
<EditRowStyle BackColor="#2461BF" />
<SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#D1DDF1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#333333" />
<PagerStyle BackColor="#2461BF" ForeColor="White" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<HeaderStyle BackColor="#507CD1" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="White" />
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="TermOfFees">
<ItemTemplate>

<%-- <%#Eval("TermofFees")%>--%>

></asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>



what sholud i do.......

Yes Why not.You can use two controls.

we can use dataList control to use two controls.
e.g.

<asp:DataList RepeatLayout="Table" RepeatColumns="2" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" runat="server" ID="dl">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="LblHeader" runat="server" </asp:Label><br />
Published:<asp:Label ID="LblDate" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Date") %>'></asp:Label><br />
<asp:Label ID="LblIntro" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Intro") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>
