user control to custom databound control

hey all,
i have a user control that has a user control in it. is it possible to turn
this whole thing into 1 custom databound control or would i need 1 custom
control per 1 user control? can you nest custom controls like you can user
control? is this ok to do?

thanks,
rodchar

You can have what's called a composite control. If you search around, I've
seen some examples of how to easily convert UserControls into CustomControls.
