title: Converting HTML.EditorFor into a drop down (html.dropdownfor?)
body: <p>Currently I am using a Html.EditorFor control in a default 'Create' View page like this.</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;%: Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.IsActive) %&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would like to convert this to a drop down with values and still be binded to the model in the view. My question is two fold.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>If there are only 2/3 values needed in the drop down..Is there a quick way to explicitly populate 2 or 3 values?</p></li>
  <li><p>If the list is big and needs to come from a sql query, how to do this?</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for the help.</p>
