Hey Dear,
that was'nt what I was asking. any way.
Let me try to help you ..
in json how do you handle it that may create problem.
You have to create new Type for handling it
suppose you json data have name,id
then create a class
eg.
class Person
{
public string Name {get;set;}
public int Id {get;set;}
}
then use "Newtonsoft.Json" download it form http://www.nuget.org/packages/Newtonsoft.Json/6.0.1
next put data into it
JavaScriptSerializer MyJavaScriptSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
dynamic MyObjectDictionary = MyJavaScriptSerializer.DeserializeObject(json);
var jsondata = (Person)Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(MyObjectDictionary["Person"], typeof(Person));
Now you can access it by using jsondata .Name and jsondata .Id
try this hope it will help.

DropDownList1.DataSource = w.insurancedetails;                 DropDownList1.DataBind();             }         }

Can you explain your wrapper class. because all you have to tweak json data with this class only..
