What is the best way to code up a Month and Year drop down list for ASP.NET?

Question

I have an internal application that I needs to have a drop down list for two date type elements: Month and Year. These values are not in

Answer 1

You could use this to get a list of all the Month names and loop through it.

CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.MonthNames

You can use it like this...using the index of the Month as the value for your dropdown

var months = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.MonthNames;
for (int i = 0; i < months.Length; i++)
{
     ddl.Items.Add(new ListItem(months[i], i.ToString()));
}
