Answer 1

You can do something like this

<asp:Label ID="someLabel" Text='<%# GetLabelText(Eval("price"), Eval("product")) %>' .. />

and

public string GetLabelText(Object price, Object product)
{
    if(/* check dropdownlist for price*/)
    {
          return price.ToString();
    }
    /* else */
    return product.ToString(); 


}
