Hi ,

you can add DropDown in aspx code page:

<asp:dropdownlist id="DropDownList1" runat="server" xmlns:asp="#unknown">AutoPostBack="true" 
       onselectedindexchanged="DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged">
   </asp:dropdownlist>

Autopostback attribute make it true.

at C# code page

C#

protected void  DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (DropDownList1.SelectedItem != null )
    {
        string selectedtext = DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text;
        string selectedValue = DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value;

        // write your logic for bind gridview as per selected item.
    }
}

Please let me know is this helpful to you.
