title: vb.net using SortedDictionary as combobox datasource
body: <p>I have a combobox which i am binding to a sortedDictionary list, so it displays in ascending order. My question is, I need to display "--Select--" as the first option. Is there any way to either:
  1) add another item besides for the datasource
  or
  2) add an unsorted item to the top of the sortedDictionary</p>
  
  <p>any other ideas welcome as well :)</p>
  
  <p>TIA</p>
