Hi Expert,

I want to change way of create dropdown menu in my razor view.

Here is my code:

<div class="col-md-6">

                                @{

        List<SelectListItem> listItems = new List<SelectListItem>();

        listItems.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Approved", Value = "A" });

        listItems.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Pending", Value = "P", Selected = true });

        listItems.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Rejected", Value = "R" });

                                }

                                <label for="status">Status</label>

                                @Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.Status, listItems, "-- Select Status --", new { @class = "form-control" })

                            </div>

Please give me some solution to achieve this task.
