Cascading dropdown box

[lm111]

Hello,

I need some help with my cascading dropdown boxes. Eveything works I just need to remove the duplicates from the States and Cities drop down box. Any idea how? I got it to work on the Country drop down but can't figure out the rest. Thanks.

private void FillCountry()
    {
        DataSet ds = (DataSet)Cache["InfoToFilter"];
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();

        ds = GetInfoFromDB2();

        dt = ds.Tables[0];
        foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
        {
            dr["country"] = AsciiToString(dr["country"].ToString());
        }
        dt.AcceptChanges();


        //Populate the list of categories     
        lstPublisher.DataSource = dt;
        lstPublisher.DataValueField = "country";
        lstPublisher.DataTextField = "country";
        lstPublisher.DataBind();
        lstPublisher.Items.Insert(0, "--Select--");
        lstAuthor.Enabled = false;
        lstTitle.Enabled = false;


    }
