Help binding a DataTable to a DropDown List

04-04-2006

Can someone tell me which properties of a DataTable are used for binding to
a DropDown list?
I have a DataTable named dt
I think that I need to bind the "EnvID" column to
DropDownList1.DataValueField
and the "ShortName" column to DropDownList1.DataTextField

Thanks,

Keith

DropDownList1.DataSource=dt;
DropDownList1.DataValueField="EnvID";
DropDownList1.DataTextField="ShortName";
