Solution 1

Try

C#

public void AddDropDownList(DropDownList obj,string[] arr)
   {
       for (int i = 0; i < arr.Length; i++)
       {
           obj.Items.Add(arr[i]);
       }
   }

you can use function this function to store values in given ways

C#

string[] arr = { Names of States };
      AddDropDownList(DropDownList1, arr); // Storing Names of State to DropDownList1 Control
