How can I combine two fields in a SelectList text description?

Question

I want put in a selected list labels the name and surname of people of an EF model. I\'ve tried with this:

public ActionResult Insert()
        {
                    


        

Answer 1

I was looking for this answer and my easy way is adding a NotMapped attribute, this is my code:

[NotMapped]
public string FullName
   {
     get
       {
         return Name + " " + LastName;
       }
   }

Then you can use the normal way in the controller, this is my code, Owner the the foreign key related to AspNetUsers

ViewBag.Owner = new SelectList(db.AspNetUsers, "Id", "FullName", product.Owner);
