Hello Yash,

You can accomplish this task by initializing the DataSource of your second ListView.

Here is the code for .aspx file

```
<asp:ListView ID="lv1" runat="server" onitemdatabound="lv1_ItemDataBound">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:ListView ID="lv2" runat="server">                    .
.
.
</asp:ListView>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:ListView>
```

Now, write code for DataSource of lv1 in Page_Load event and for lv2 in ItemDataBound of lv1. But remember to find lv2 in lv1 in order to point to lv2.

Here is the code for finding lv2.

```
ListView lv2 = e.Item.FindControl("lv2") as ListView;
```

Now you can use DataBound Property of lv2;

For further details refer to this forum post:
