in code behind

 Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
            Dim index As Integer
            For index = 0 To mView1.Views.Count - 1
                Menu1.Items.Add(New MenuItem(mView1.Views(index).ID, index.ToString()))
            Next index
            Menu1.Items(0).Selected = True
        End If
    End Sub
    Protected Sub Menu1_MenuItemClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.MenuEventArgs) Handles Menu1.MenuItemClick
