make drop down list item unselectable

Question

I have a dropdownlist which has several options for generating reports. Based on the type of account the user has certain options which should be visible but not selectable

Answer 1

I had this same problem and tried to use the first answer posted, but it didn't work for me. I then changed the first post to:

foreach ( ListItem item in dropdownlist.Items )
{
  if ( [item should be disabled contdition] )
  {
     item.Enabled = false;
  }
}

and it worked for me.
