ASP.NET Server Controls - Data Source
I put a dropdownlist on a webform and give a list as datasource. But what can I do, if I want the first item in dropdownlist to be "Select a user" or something like that?
For example: // ddlAllUsers is a DropDownList
List<REGUSER> users = UserOperat开发者_JAVA技巧ions.GetAllUsers();
ddlAllUsers.DataSource = users;
ddlAllUsers.DataTextField = "NameLastName";
ddlAllUsers.DataValueField = "ID";
ddlAllUsers.DataBind();
Adding a new item in list whose associated property is "Select a user" is a solution, but I don't prefer.
You can actually add an item to your List with required properties.
For example,
List<REGUSER> users = UserOperations.GetAllUsers();
users.Insert( 0, new REGUSER() { NameLastName = "Select a user...", ID = -1 } );
