Thank you for ur reply.. this one is working .. but am getting an error like this

Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.

Are you using dropdownlist inside a gridivew? The Eval method uses the name of a data field ( TotalPrice) and returns a string value of that field from the current record inside given data source.

ya.. dropdown list in a datalist

JoCodes 9-Oct-13 8:20am

Can you post code how its binding using a datasource through which you are fetching the TotalPrice Field.
