int DayToday=str.Day;
for(int i=1;i<=31;i++)
{
DropDownList1.Items.Add(i.ToString());
}

Something like:
DropDownList1.Items.FindByText(DayToday.ToString()).Selected = true;

N.B. This is just from memory, so you may have to tweak it a bit...

solved like this
for(int i=1;i<=31;i++)

{

DropDownList1.Items.Add(i.ToString());

}

DropDownList1.SelectedValue =DayToday.ToString();
