One way to do it is to populate your address list in your controller and use the Html.DropDownList helper to create your drop down. For example: <pre><code>public ActionResult Index() { var addressList = <YourAddressListHere>; ViewData["Addresses"] = new SelectList(addressList, "<ValueProperty>", "<NameProperty>"); return View(); } </code></pre> And in your view (Razor syntax): <pre><code>@Html.DropDownList("AddressDropDown", (ViewData["Addresses"] as SelectList)) </code></pre> There is also Html.ListBoxFor and Html.ListBox helpers if you wanted to do multi-select. The same basic approach applies. <hr> (EDIT) Sorry for my misunderstanding. To get the list of addresses that were selected you can add the control name as a parameter in you "POST" handler and extract them during the save/edit/insert function. <pre><code>[HttpPost] public ActionResult Edit(int[] addressList, <your parameters>) ..... </code></pre> with the UI code as: <pre><code><div class="editor-field"> @Html.ListBox("addressList") </div> </code></pre> You can do whatever you need with the list of address ID's that were selected. I know that there is more than likely a better way to do this with MVC. If anyone looks at this and knows a better way, please comment because I'd like to know myself. I know that you can create some custom binder classes that I think will do all of this stuff automatically, but I haven't gotten that far yet with MVC. I, myself, am a beginner with MVC. In any case, I hope this helps a bit. <hr>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
