Dave, below is the code that I'm using...please let me know if I'm missing something.

<ig:BoundDataField DataFieldName="Dray_Type" DataType="System.String" Key="Dray_Type"
  Width="100px">   
  <Header Text="Dray Type" />
</ig:BoundDataField>

<ig:RowEditingClientBinding ColumnKey="Dray_Type" ControlID="wddDrayType" 
 GetValueJavaScript="$find({ClientID}).get_currentValue()"
 SetValueJavaScript="$find({ClientID}).set_currentValue({value},true)" />

<td class="style12">
 <b>Dray Type:</b>
</td>
<td class="style13">
 <ig:WebDropDown ID="wddDrayType" runat="server" TabIndex="3" Height="20px" Width="110px"
  DataSourceID="sdsDrayType" TextField="DrayTypeDesc" ValueField="DrayType"
                DisplayMode="DropDownList" DropDownOrientation="Default"
                DropDownContainerHeight="500px" DropDownContainerWidth="300px"
                EnableMultipleSelection="true" MultipleSelectionType="Checkbox"
                EnableDropDownAsChild="true" ClientEvents-Initialize="setZIndex"
                DropDownItemBinding-TextField="DrayTypeDesc" DropDownItemBinding-ValueField="DrayType"  >
 </ig:WebDropDown>
</td>

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sdsDrayType" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$   ConnectionStrings:csDrayage %>"
  SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [Dray_Type] AS DrayType, [Dray_Type_Desc] AS DrayTypeDesc FROM [DrayType] WHERE ([Deleted_Id] IS NULL) ORDER BY [Dray_Type_Desc]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>                                                                                   

function setZIndex(sender, args) {
  sender.behavior.set_zIndex(1000000);
}

Hi,

It is possible that the drop down is showing, but its z-index is less than that of the row edit template div.  They both use our drop down framework.  Could you maybe handle the opening client event on the drop down and try to set a bigger z-index on the drop down itself?

-Dave

Thanks for the reply David. I tried using the WebDropDown within the RowEditTemplate but I could not make the control drop down...I could get it to work outside of the RowEditTemplate but not inside of it...any thoughts as to why?
