i want a grid view control with codes

As we don't have access to yer data - what exactly is going wrong?

BTW would'nt it it easier to bind the DropDownLists to the ticketPrice - then you don't have to do your "If DropDownList2.SelectedValue = ..."

DropDownList.DataTextField="Ticket_Type"    
  DropDownList.DataValueField="Ticket_Price"

The original question was from 2008 and I doubt he is still working on that code.

Mustaffa resurrected and hijacked this old thread with his vague, unrelated question, so I'm just going to close this to avoid further confusion.
