if u mean explaination: then

First add an .aspx page then drag n drop ddl on page and set its property to autopostback = true. then

from design page double click the ddl its takes u to the code behind page where u will be coding. just find the Page_load event to add the
ddl1.Items.Add(Format(Date.Today, "dd MMM yyyy"))
