You can populate a dropdownlist in asp.net .NET framework 2.0 this way:

Code

GeSHi (csharp):
Dictionary<int, string> getData= v.returnDictionaryMethod();
 
        DropDownListData.DataTextField = "Value";
        DropDownListData.DataValueField = "Key";
        DropDownListData.DataSource = getData;
        DropDownListData.DataBind();
 
//The returnDictionary method looks like this:
 
public Dictionary<int, string> returnDictionary ()
        {
   Dictionary<int, string> d = new Dictionary<int, string>();
//fill the dictionary with data from an sql database  or another source here
          return d;
}
