Not clear. Where are the data source of Grid and DropDownList?

i don't want to bind the grid from any datasource. i just insert the dropdown text into table.

If the Grid don't have data, it cannot be shown.

No way, think of it once. You are going to show something inside a container, which itself does not have data.

You can create a Dummy datatable or Dataset with one record of empty data and bidn to datagrid.Mean time for the Comboxbox you can add your actual datasource.Hope this will help you.

This is what you need - Dynamically adding and deleting rows from ASP.NET GridView[^].
