I was trying to bring all the database names in a dropdownlist..
Here is my code ..

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
populateddl();
}
}

private void populateddl()
{
using (SqlDataAdapter sda = new SqlDataAdapter("exec sp_databases", conn))
{
using(DataSet ds = new DataSet())
{
sda.Fill(ds);
DropDownList8.DataSource = ds;
DropDownList8.DataBind();
}
}
}
em not able to get the names in the dropdownlist, pls help me in this scenario..
when run the application what em getting is..

To bind dropdownllist i modified the code like this ..
DropDownList8.DataTextField = "DATABASE_NAME";
DropDownList8.DataValueField = "DATABASE_SIZE";
