'Query for the country and bind it to the drop down list.
cboCountry.DataSource = objCountry.GetCountry()
cboCountry.DataValueField = "CountryCode"
cboCountry.DataTextField = "Country"
cboCountry.DataBind()
cboCountry.Items.Add(New ListItem("<New>", "New"))
cboCountry.SelectedValue = "New"

You have to use Insert method ofListItemCollection instead of Add method.
the syntax of Insert is
Overloads Public Sub Insert(Integer, ListItem)
