How do I bind 60000 rows to dropdown list in ASP.NET

Question

Hi All,

 

While binding more than 600000 rows into the drop-down list then the page is hanged up.

 

I have tried:

 

DataTable dt;

dt = GetDataTable(sqlQuery);

lb.DataSource = dt;

lb.DataTextField = Display;

lb.DataValueField = Value;

lb.DataBind();
