Get WebGridView row from dropdownlist selectedindexchanged

okay so in a typical gridview (Microsoft ASP.net one) you can put a drop down list in a template column, then in the selectedindexchanged event you can type this

    Protected Sub ddl_PackWeek_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

        Dim gd_data1 As New DataAccessLayer()

        'get dropdownlist object
        Dim Myddl As DropDownList = CType(sender, DropDownList)

        'use naming container property to get the row in which the control resides
        Dim MyRow As GridViewRow = CType(Myddl.NamingContainer, GridViewRow)

'database call
        gd_data1.updatePackWeek(MyRow.Cells(0).Text, Myddl.SelectedItem.Value)

        Me.gv_receiving.DataBind()
    End Sub

How do you do this in a web grid view?

in so many words, how do I access info from the ROW of my Drop Down List?

ASP if you need it

                                         
                                         
                                              
                                             
                                         </ItemTemplat
