Drop Down List Add-On

Colonel Angus · February 12th, 2004, 12:39 PM

I have a dropdown list bound to a data reader. I want to add a default, static entry as the first option.

I am using

Code:

myDDL.Items.Add(New ListItem("Select Type", "0"))

to add the static entry.

However, it is always the last item in the list. How do I make this the first option in the list?

myDDL.Items.insert(0, "Select Type")

Thanks Markie, that was mostly it.

Instead of:

Code:

myDDL.Items.insert(0, "Select Type")

I used:

Code:

myDDL.Items.insert(0, New ListItem("Select Type", "0"))
