DropDownListBox and Item Value

[Guest]

I use the following piece of code to programatically insert an item into a
dropdownlistbox:

myDropdownListBox.items.insert(0, myDisplayedText)

This works but the value of the item is then the same as myDisplayedText.

My question: I want the value to be something different. How I can I
programmatically code the value of the item to be something different that
the displayed text?

let me know if this helps
ListItem li= new ListItem();
li.Text ="a";
li.Value ="b";
DropDownList1.Items.Insert(0,li);

myDropdownListBox.Items.Insert(0,new ListItem("myDisplayedText","myValue"));
