Binding to a dropdownlist with row numbers

Is there a way to databind to a dropdownlist from a dataTable where you have
the value as the row number of the DataTable?

In the following, I'd like to change "CountryCode" with the row number (0
based) of the DataTable.

Country.DataSource=DataTable;
Country.DataTextField= "CountryName";
Country.DataValueField="CountryCode";
Country.DataBind();
Country.Items.Insert(0, "Select Country");

Thanks,

Tom
