    Resolved [RESOLVED] can you bind an dropdownlist to a constant array?

    I have a dropdownlist in my web form that will have dynamic content based on the selecteditem of ANOTHER dropdownlist on the same page.

    I was wondering if I can bind this dynamic dropdownlist to an array that will always be constant (i'll have many of these constant arrays, but they all will have different data). I figured out how to bind it to an ArrayList but i'm not sure if that will work because i don't know whatthe value of the SelectedIndex will be if I just fill the dropdown list with an ArrayList.

    Hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help!

    SelectedIndex would be -1.

    The ArrayList should work just fine.
    Need to re-register ASP.NET?
    C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v#VERSIONNUMBER#\aspnet_regiis -i

    (Edit #VERSIONNUMBER# as needed - do a DIR if you don't know)
