DropDownList Question

My application has a series of dropdownlists with AutoPostBack set to
True and IndexChanged handlers as well. All of the dropdownlists are
bound and dynamically populated.

Is there a way to manually add an entry to a dropdownlist that is
bound? The reason I ask is because if the first item is the one the
user wants to select it is not able to postback since it is already
selected.
 
The bind code first cleans the contents of the dropdown. You will have to
write a for-loop to assign the items instead of binding. That way, you can
insert the entry manually.
