Where do you want to access it? However, in general you have to use RepeaterItem.FindControl("DropDownID") to get the reference.

For example in ItemDataBound :

protected void Repeater1_ItemDataBound(Object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item || e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
    {
        DropDownList ddldrop = (DropDownList) e.Item.FindControl("DropDownList1");
        // here you are
    }
}

If you want to access it from a button-click handler where the button is outside of the repeater you can loop all the items via repeater.Items . You don't need to check the ListItemType as in the code above if you loop the repeater-items since repater.Items only returns items with type Item and AlternatingItem .
