If you observe above code in header section I written css classes by using those we can change the appearance of gridview and written code to bind dropdownlists, gridview and bind the gridview records based on dropdownlists selection.
Here don’t forgot to set the connection string in web.config file here I am getting database connection from web.config file for that reason you need to set the connectionstring in web.config file like this
<connectionStrings>
<add name="dbconnection" connectionString="Data Source=SureshDasari;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB"/>
</connectionStrings>
