Binding Drop down in grid view programatically

I'm trying to bind the开发者_JAVA技巧 'ddRec' dropdown to the Recruiter field in the dataset. I tried DataTextField='<%#Bind("Recruiter")%>'

Edit:

Error: {"Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."}

Let me explain better sorry. I'm trying to set the value from the proc but the dropdown list itself is being populated from a query on the OnRowCreated Event I think this is my problem

protected void gvStates_RowCreated(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
var drop = new List<string> { "" };

    var LNQ = new LNQDataContext();
    var Rec = LNQ.Recruits.Where(c => c.Active == "Y").Select(c => new { c.Name });
    var Rdp = new List<string> { "" };
    foreach (var a in Rec) { Rdp.Add(a.Name); }

    for (int i = 1; i <= _cnt; i++) { drop.Add("S" + i); }
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        var ddl = (DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddlSess");
        ddl.DataSource = drop;
        ddl.DataBind();

        var ddR = (DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddRec");
        ddR.DataSource = Rdp;
        ddR.DataBind();
    }
}

You can't programmatically bind to the DataTextField field; the DataTextField identifies the field to display in the drop down, hence it has to be static and is not evaluated per row. Though, you can tap into the Grid's RowDataBound event, and programmably set the DataTextField property and bind data at that point.

HTH.
