dropdown1.DataBind();

colud u please help to me.

If you rebind the dropdown then the old values will be last. You need to get the result using join and then bind it into the dropdown list

Try this one(untested).

var results=from dc in dc.contacts join dcm in dc.Morecontacts on dc.id equals dcm.id
       where dc.location="Hyd"
       select new{n.Id,n.Name};

dropdown1.Datasouce=results;

dropdown1.DataTextField="Name";

dropdown1.DataValueField="Id";

dropdown1.DataBind();
