Here is a more complete code snippet of what I am doing... I doesn't have to be done this way. I'll do it any way that works. What I am trying to do is display a dropdown of fields to build a simplistic query builder on a page.

Dim lafldnames as new arraylist

For intColumn = 0 To dsGrid.Tables(0).Columns.Count - 1


lafldnames.Add(dsGrid.Tables(0).Columns(intColumn).ColumnName.ToString)
Next


DropDownList1.DataSource = Me.lafldnames
DropDownList1.DataBind()
