It works very well if I delete the SqlDataSource of the DropDownlist... maybe the inserted item is overwrited by the SqlDataSource !!? protected void FormView1_ItemCreated(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (FormView1.CurrentMode == FormViewMode.Insert) { DropDownList dropDownList1; dropDownList1 = (DropDownList)FormView1.FindControl("DDL_ca"); if (dropDownList1 != null) { dropDownList1.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(DDL_ca_SelectedIndexChanged); SqlDataSourceActions.ConnectionString = "ConnectionString"; dropDownList1.Items.Add(new ListItem("Add New1", "999")); dropDownList1.DataSourceID = "SqlDataSourceActions"; dropDownList1.DataValueField = "CA_code"; dropDownList1.DataTextField = "CA_desc"; dropDownList1.DataBind(); dropDownList1.Items.Add(new ListItem("Add New2", "999")); } } } Any Ideas? =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor(r) http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor(r) http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
