GridView Filter Expression With DropDownList ASP.NET

Posted by amiT jaiN This example explains how to Filter GridView With DropDownList In ASP.NET Using FilterExpression And Filter Paramaters Or GridView Filtering with Sql Server And SqlDataSource. I m using northwind database and customers table to show data and filter gridview with dropdownlist. First of all open aspx page in design view and place 2 dropdownlist, 1 gridview and 3 SqlDatasource on the page. Configure all 3 sqldatasources as according to code mentioned below. and use them for datasource to populate city dropdown, country dropdown and gridview. You can also read ModalPopUp extender in Gridview to know how to configure SqlDataSource.

Mindy and Marty said... I left a comment on your post in 2009 about a code for page views on your blog. Can you see my question about how to reset the page views for each post I make so it starts the count at zero again. I tried removing it and doing a whole new one but it just picks right back up where it left off. How can I reset the count?>! thanks! my blog is mindymarty.blogspot.com
