Read on CSS for designing and handling UI part...

set the width for the gridview as Width="40%". what ever % width you need for gridview. you can also set width for dropdown list.

<pre><asp:Panel Width="250" runat="server" style="overflow:scroll;">
       <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" >
       </asp:GridView></asp:Panel>

Have you defined the width parameter for the Dropdown list and the grid view. If not try setting it using the Style attribute for these controls. That should do the trick.

HTH!
