In other words if it is not rejected you need to validate? make sure approve or N/A is selected.. I assumed index= 0 is approved 1 is N/A 2 is Rejected.. Try this : foreach (DataListItem item in dtLstRejection.Items) { RadioButtonList rdlReasoncodeType = ((RadioButtonList)item.FindControl(rdlReasonType)); System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label lbldlmsg = (Label)item.FindControl(lbldlmsg); if (rdlReasoncodeType.SelectedIndex == -2) // if rejected no need to validate { break; } else if (rdlReasoncodeType.SelectedIndex == -1) // if nothing is selected need to validate { lbldlmsg.Text = *Approve fields are mandatory to check; } else { lbldlmsg.Text = string.Empty; } }

rdlReasoncodeType1 that was mistake from my side that already i have corrected. in datalist i have only one radiobuttonlist and There are three items. 1- Approved 2- N/a 3- Rejected what do i want if i click on update button then either Approved or N/A should be mandaory to check all radiobuttonlist which are binded from database and if i click on Rejected then validation not required....

I understand rdlReasoncodeType is the radiobuttonlist inside datalist what is rdlReasoncodeType1? Do you have 2 radiobuttonlist? What do you want to check when a user clicks Update button? Do you want to make sure Approved fields are all selected?
