<code>
//Connection to database and column to split***********************************
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
String strConnection = "Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:\\Documents and Settings\\jeeva\\My Documents\\Visual Studio 2008\\WebSites\\WebSite2\\App_Data\\tempdb.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True";
String strQueryString = "select * from student";
using (SqlConnection sqlConnection = new SqlConnection(strConnection))
{
SqlCommand sqlCommand = new SqlCommand(strQueryString, sqlConnection);
sqlConnection.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = sqlCommand.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
dropDownList.Items.Add(reader["name"].ToString());
}
}
}
//method for split data*********************************
private void splitData (String strData,ref ArrayLit alData)
{
String strTemp = null;
int nCount = 0;
alData = new ArrayList();
foreach (char ch in strData)
{
if (ch != ' ')
strTemp = strTemp + ch;
else if (ch == ' ')
{
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(strTemp))
{
alData.Add(strTemp);
strTemp = null;
nCount++;
}
}
}
if (strTemp != null)
alData.Add(strTemp);
}
