The easiest way is to respond to the dropdownlist1 change event. From
within there you can query the database and fill dropdownlist2.

If you want to get really fancy you may be able to do all that with client
side code instead for better performance.

Look in this newsgroup for a very good contibution by stcheng (Steven Chen)
The example uses three interdependent listboxes.
