Can this be done?

Is it possible in vb.net to bind a control with a data source other than a database? I dought it's possible but I would like to be able to bind text boxes to variables :p

You can bind to any object that implements IList or an interface that derives from IList. An example is the Arraylist which you can bind to.

VB Code:

Dim itms() As String = {"Edneeis", "Cander", "MartinLiss", "Serge"}
        Dim al As New ArrayList(itms)
        ComboBox1.DataSource = al
        'if binding to a class you have to set the property to bind to
        'ComboBox1.DisplayMember="MyProperty"

Ah very nice.. thanks Edneeis..
