    Hi

      I have below code . In Label it shows No . When Dropdown appears by default No should be selected since it has Value No in Database. It just displays List

    protected void gvwBfbStructure_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
            {
                DropDownList ddlIS = (e.Row.FindControl("ddlISg") as DropDownList);
                if (ddlIS != null)
                {
                    ddlIS.DataSource = new List<string>() { "Yes", "No" };
                    ddlIS.DataBind();
                    ((DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddlIS")).SelectedValue =
                        DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "IS").ToString();
                }
            }


<asp:TemplateField HeaderText = "IS">
                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <asp:Label ID="lblIS" runat="server" Text='<%# Convert.ToString(Eval("IS")) == "Y" ? "Yes" : "No" %>' CssClass="mytxtWidth30"></asp:Label>
                                    <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlIS" Visible = "false" runat="server"> </asp:DropDownList> 
                                </ItemTemplate>
                            </asp:TemplateField>

    Thanks

    You have a tempalte column instead of BoundColumn, so you need to assign the value from controls inside template column. First find the label control and then set the selected value in dropdownlist

    protected void gvwBfbStructure_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
            {
                DropDownList ddlIS = (e.Row.FindControl("ddlISg") as DropDownList);
                Label lbl = (e.Row.FindControl("lblIS") as Label);
                if (ddlIS != null)
                {
                    ddlIS.DataSource = new List<string>() { "Yes", "No" };
                    ddlIS.DataBind();
                    //Set the selected value from dropdownlist
                    ((DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddlIS")).SelectedValue = lbl.Text;
                }
            }
        }
