I am working on an Import application, that looks at a comma delimited file and puts it into a dataTable. Fields are either present in the file or created by the app.

I want to merge the data into the apps database, but the user needs to tell the app what field in the file matches with my database fields.

What I am doing now is I have every field in my database with a drop down associated that has a list of all the fields in the provided table. This means there are 21 drop downs with the same data in it.

Any ideas how to do it better?
