Ruchi Sharavat · Answer

Are your dropdown's items static right now as you mentioned " i have one dropdownlist with Text( 1.Cash,2.Cheque,3.ECS)" while in database you have only two options?    Do you want to rebind this dropdown statically again?    Your query is not clear what exactly issue you are facing. Please update the issue.
