How do I bind a datasource to a <asp:Dropdownlist ID="mydropdown" ...> declared
within an <asp:repeater ...> ?
When I try
mydropdown.DataSource = hshDepartment;
mydropdown.DataKeyField = hshDepartment..Keys;
mydropdown.DataValueField = hsbDepartment.Values;
mydropdown.DataBind();
The compiler is not accepting the assignment. Says can't find "mydropdown"
