title: How to get the first value inside a drop down list as select?
body: <p>I'm doing a project in asp.net using 3-tier architecture. Using various trial and errors i have successfully binded the values inside a column of a table inside the dropdownlist.</p>
  
  <p>The thing that I'm stuck with right now is that during the pageload event i get the values inside the dropdown box that are available in my table. But the real problem is i have to get the first value inside the dropdownlist as "Select" or "Choose any One". I'm Not able to do this.</p>
  
  <p>Heres my code</p>
  
  <pre><code>        DataTable datatable = new DataTable();
         _bl = new HomeFileUploadBL();
          voo = _bl.SelectNameOfDocument();
          datatable = voo.DocumentName;
          ddlDocument.DataSource = datatable;
          ddlDocument.DataTextField = datatable.Columns["Name"].ToString();
          ddlDocument.DataValueField = datatable.Columns["Name"].ToString();
          ddlDocument.DataBind();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>notations are: 
  ddlDocument refers to DropDownList,
  datatable refers to DataTable, _bl refers to the object of business class, voo.Document refers to the value object class,Document is of the type DataTable.</p>
  
  <p>As soon as the page loads the first value from the table is available inside the dropdownlist.</p>
  
  <p>Also when i click on the dropdownlist my first value shoul be "Select" or "Choose any one"</p>
  
  <p>Am im missing that is really obvious. ?</p>
