Hi,

I trying to populate data into DDL using List. is it possible?

Following is my code :

Category.cs

public class Categories
    {
        int id;
        string category;

        public Categories() {}
        
        public Categories(int i, string cat)
        {
            this.id = i;
            this.category = cat;
        }

        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Category { get; set; }
    }

HomeController/Create

public ActionResult Create()
        {
            IList<Categories> c = new List<Categories>();
            c.Add(new Categories(1, "Cricket"));
            c.Add(new Categories(2, "Carom"));
            c.Add(new Categories(3, "Football"));

            ViewData["Category"] = new SelectList(c.ToList()); // I want display category here. I can not access id and category through List
            return View();
        }

I am able to achieve this using Ms Entity Framework.

Thanks

Vish
