Hi, Can you write about how to fill dropdown in controller? instead of '<%:Html.DropDownListFor(m=>m.ddlStateID,Model.StateValue) %>' fill Dropdownlist in controller. Thanks.

solve it, all you needed was to add: <PopulatingDDLusingEF.ViewModels.IndexViewModel> to the master page, would look like: <%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Views/Shared/Site.Master" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<PopulatingDDLusingEF.ViewModels.IndexViewModel>" %> a good tutorial, thanks =)
