Re: Programatically create ASP.NET binding

Setting the DataSource first appropriately in your code.
There you use the DataTextField property for showing the text, and DataValueField property for the "real" name of your data source.
Plus setting the "AutoPostback" to true.
Declare also the "SelectedIndexChanged" event and hook this up to your dynamically created control.
