Using Dropdowns in Detailsview

[rdgerken]

Hey folks,

I get a "Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control." error when I enter edit mode on my DetailsView. Basically, I've added some dropdown lists in my detailsview that are populated from child table. It all works fine until the page tries to post with the dropdownlist. I've found a few pages trying to help with this, but still haven't gotten it to work. Does anyone have an example of using a dropdown in a details view that is populated from a child table? Thanks for your help.
