so you when a user selects a entry in the drop down list you want to change
the hyperlink on the post back event?

If so what you want to do is add a handler for the drop down list and do
something like this get the current datagrid item index.

private void ddlXXX_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItem item = null;
    item = ((System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList)sender).Parent.Parent;

    int currentIndex = item.ItemIndex;
    string newUrl = "<MAKE URL>";

    System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink link = null;
    System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink =
(System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink)item.FindControl("PocketDetails'");

    link.NavigateUrl = newUrl;
}
