I want to insert a default null ListItem with the text "choose an item ..."
in my DropDownList control. I have seen similar postings here regarding this
issue but all of them seem to focus around having to populate datasources,
datatables etc. and then bind the DropDownList in the codebehind of the .aspx
page. I am using Visual Studio 2005 and the .NET Framework 2.0. I thought
that with all these new improvements we could avoid all of the irritations of
..NET Framework 1.x and the weak controls that came with the IDE by being able
to automate all of this databinding stuff. It seems like the only way to
insert individual ListItems is if you go back to doing everything in code.
What gives?
Thanks in advance.
