<asp:DropDownList> (Dinamically add items?)

[John Smith]

I have this DataGrid:

<asp:datagrid id="dg1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="SM">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label id="Label2" runat="server" Text='<%#
Container.DataItem("SM") %>'>
</asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<aspropDownList id="ddlSM" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlSM_SelectedIndexChanged">
</aspropDownList>
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
</asp:datagrid>

I have found many examples of using ArrayList, like this:

http://www.syncfusion.com/FAQ/aspnet/WEB_c28c.aspx

but I need Key/Value pairs, which ArrayList doesn't have.

So use a hashtable ...?
