Use the GetEnumerator() to get the keys in to a list object and bind the list object to the datagridview...

List<string> lstKey = new List<string>();
foreach(var entry in dictionary)
{
lstKey.Add(entry.Key);
}
datagridview.DataSource=lstKey;
datagridview.DataBind();

So you have to have a code similar like in the next example in your Page_Init():

C#

_storagePlanDropDownList.DataSource = dictionary;
                   _storagePlanDropDownList.DataValueField = "key";
                   _storagePlanDropDownList.DataTextField = "key";
                   _storagePlanDropDownList.DataBind();
