Follow the code below i have made some modifications to make it easier and work. I didnt verified connections etc.

1) Define two dropdown list like below

C#

<asp:dropdownlist id="drp1" runat="server" onselectedindexchanged="drp1_SelectedIndexChanged" autopostback="true" datavaluefield="xyz" datatextfield="xyz" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
</asp:dropdownlist>
<asp:dropdownlist id="drp2" runat="server" datavaluefield="loan_code" datatextfield="loan_code" xmlns:asp="#unknown">    
</asp:dropdownlist>

2)

VB

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not IsPostBack Then
            cn.Open()
            boundDp()
            cn.Close()
        End If
End Sub

3)

VB

Public Sub boundDp()
        cmd.Connection = cn
        cmd.CommandText = "Select xyz From Acct_Sum"
        Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
        Dim dt As New DataTable
        da.Fill(dt)            
        Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow()
        dr("xyz") = "Select Item Here"
        dt.Rows.InsertAt(dr, 0)
        drp1.DataSource = dt 
        drp1.DataBind()        
End Sub

4)

C#

Private Sub drp1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles DPA2.SelectedIndexChanged
        cn.Open()       
        cmd.Connection = cn
        cmd.CommandText = "Select loan_code From Acct_Sum2 Where loan_code=@Loan_code"
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Loan_code", drp1.SelectedValue)
        Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
        Dim dt As New DataTable
        da.Fill(dt)
        Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow()
        dr("xyz") = "Select Sub Item Here"
        dt.Rows.InsertAt(dr, 0)
        drp2.DataSource = dt        
        drp2.DataBind()
        cn.Close() 
End Sub
