Hello My Dear FRIENDS,

am facing problem with Edit Item Template in Asp.net Gridview.

I have a dropdownlist Inside Gridview in Edit Item Template. In this dropdownlist it has options to select.

While storing in database, user will select from dropdownlist and it will save.

and for this record, we have edit,update option inside gridview.

While editing the record, it shows -----Select------
Already we have selected the option from dropdownlist, it must show the selected option while editing.

This is my Markup Code.

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Equipment Type">
<HeaderStyle Width="100px" />
<ItemStyle Width="100px" />

<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="DDLEquipmentTypeEdit" runat="server" DataValueField="EquipmentType">
<asp:ListItem Selected="True" Value="0">---- Select ---</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>CPU</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Monitor</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Printer</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Scanner</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Laptop</asp:ListItem>
    </asp:DropDownList>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfv1rv" runat="server" ControlToValidate="DDLEquipmentTypeEdit" ErrorMessage="Select Equipment Type" Text="*" ValidationGroup="validationEDIT" InitialValue="0"/>
</EditItemTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblitemddlEquipmenttype" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Equipment_type") %>'/>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlftrEquipment_type" runat="server" Width="100px" Height="23px" CssClass="text_form_fields_ddl" DataValueField="EquipmentType" ToolTip="Please Select Equipment Type">
   <asp:ListItem>CPU</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Monitor</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Printer</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Scanner</asp:ListItem>
   <asp:ListItem>Laptop</asp:ListItem>--%>
    </asp:DropDownList>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvEquipmentType" runat="server" ControlToValidate="ddlftrEquipment_type" ErrorMessage="Select Equipment Type" Text="*" ValidationGroup="validation" InitialValue="0"/>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

Please can you show me how to do this ?

Thanks in advance.
