Populate drop down from another table.
Populate drop down from another table.

Hi apologies if this is a really basic question but I'm a bit new to this type of use for a data table.
I have a customer that wants to use a mvc form with a data table for input. I have standard txt fields working fine but now the requirement has changed to allow the user to user dropdowns to select data from associated tables.
I am not sure of the following things
- how to render a dropdown box in a data table
- how to populate the selection with data from another table.
Again apologies if this is a stupid question but the user has decided this and I am on a tight time frame to deliver so thought it easier to ask than spend hours trawling the net.
Thank is advance.
