<p>In ASP.NET how do I populate a drop down list and also include text for the default selected state?</p>

<p>For eg.</p>

<p>A drop down will contain: Enter day, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5</p>

<pre><code>ddlDayDropDown.DataSource = Enumerable.Range(1, 31).ToList();
ddlDayDropDown.DataBind();
</code></pre>

<p>I can't add a "string" here.</p>
