[2005] DataSets and UserControls

[epixelman]

I am getting strange behavior and do not know why.

I can set up a dataset (MDB) perfectly fine on the main form. I can drag (from Data Source Toolwindow) the fields onto the controls no problem.

But I have a usercontrol that I load as a form. But, I can not drag any of my table/fields onto any controls on the UserControl (aka form).

Why???

Thanks

Does anybody know why I can not drag "data source" fields from the "Data Source" toolwindow onto controls that are in a UserControl??

Thanks

Your UserControl may not support databinding.

[epixelman]

Why not and if it can, how do I make it accept data binding??

[RobDog888]

It would depend if the author of the user control programmed in support for databinding.

It is a "usercontrol1.vb" that is native to VB.NET.
It is not a control from somebody else.

I created the usercontrol using the "add Items" of VB.NET

All I am doing is...

Dim frm1 As usercontrol1
frm1.Show()

Ok, then if your writting the user control then what controls are in it?

Datagrid, 2 RTF's

RobDogg,

I found out what it is. You were close. You made me check this out!! Thanks

It isn't a thrird party control, but I do inherit a thrird party docking control in my usercontrol1.vb. It adds a toolwindow titlbar/border to the "form" (aka my userc control)

So, I might not be able to bind it.

I will have to email QIOS to see how I can bind data to controls on my usercontrol1.

Thanks
