Microsoft binding collection object

[fiona_conard]

Hi all,

Has anyone have experience on binding controls to a data source using Microsoft binding collection object?

If i want to bind a disconnected recordset to controls, which way should i use
1) Binding controls to disconnected recordset through Microsoft binding collection object or
2) Binding controls to disconnected recordset directly.
Which way is better?

Thanks!

Look if it is a control, you should be able to bind it directly to the Recordset. The data binding collection is to be used with Data Bound Classes, or where multiple properties are to be bound with the source.
