[RESOLVED] When to fill drop down list values?

I have a bunch of drop down lists in my web app. a LOT actually. Each of them have different values (luckily stored in a reference table). I have some a strongly typed dataset that i can use to just call a method and fill those drop down lists pretty easily.

My question is: does it make more sense to create an ObjectDataSource for EACH dropdownlist, and fill it using the appropriate method from my strongly typed data access layer? Or to fill them using the same Methods in my vb code during the Page load event, which keeps me from having ALOT of different objectdatasources?

Does this even make sense? Which way seems more efficient?

Thanks!

I've pretty much determined that NOT using that many ObjectDataSources is the best route since it prevents some overhead.

I'm resolving this, but would still like you guy's opinions.
Thanks!

To be honest, not much difference. In a metaphorically tightly bound form, you would probably use those datasources. But I wouldn't. I'd want to keep them loosely coupled instead.
