Binding Data to the BulletedList Control
Like the earlier list controls, you can bind data to the BulletedList control in either of
the following ways:
Declarative
Programmatic
We have already seen how we can bind static data to this control declaratively
through the .aspx file. This section discusses how you can bind data to this control
programmatically.
You can bind data to the BulletedList control using a valid data source and the
DataBind() method. Like the other list controls that we have already discussed, you
need to specify the DataTextField and the DataValueField properties to specify
the Text and Value properties of each of the list items in the control.
