Databinding to dropdownlist

[Billy Jacobs]

I have a table with two fields for a person's name.(e.g.
FirstName, LastName).

Is there a way to bind both fields with a space between
them to a dropdownlist control so that the full name is
displayed?

Thanks,

Billy Jacobs

Hi Billy, you can add another column to the table, set the values you want
to display in that column, and bind to it.

sql="Select Id, FullName=FirstName + ' ' + LastName from table";

Now you have two columns, Id and FullName, to bind to the DropDownList.
