Surely you are not a dummy and are using Visual Studio.net? ;-)
Put the control onto the form, select the control, and try using
Properties > Misc > Items (Collection) to see if that approach
is okay with you..

Hello
I have a pretty standard ASP.NET page where a user is required to
enter their address. For the field "State", I am using a dropdown
list of course. What is the best/easiest way to populate this control
on a page load? I do not want to have to have a table in my data
source that has all the US states. Is there a web server or
something?
Thanks,
Dave
