Solution 1

Create one function with 4 args

C#

PopulateDropDown(DropDownList ddl,DataTable dt,string displayField,string defaultText){
            ddl.DataSource = dt;
            ddl.DataTextField = displayField;
            ddl.DataBind();
            DropDownList1.Items.Insert(0,new ListItem(DefaultText,""));
}
