DataBind()

[Pam Ammond]

In WindowsForm in C# in Visual Studio 2003,
When I create a datagrid, and give it a name such as dgPart,
When I try to bind to it using DataBind(), such as is mentioned in the
online help called Walkthrough: Creating Read-Only Data Access in a Web Forms
Page,
DataBind() isn't an option.
My guess is that maybe it's not needed for a WindowsForm, but if so, I'd
like to know how I would convert articles such as this so they work in
WindowsForm, not just in ASP.NET. I would appreciate it if you could please
explain further what is happening and why. I don't see anything in Help or
Knowledgebase to explain why DataBind() isn't an option for my datagrid.

Also, I haven't received an answer I can use to Subject: updating datagrid
after returning 10/11/2004 5:53 PM PST... would you mind taking a look at
this previous post to see if you can help me?

Hi,
The binding mechanism is different in win forms from web forms, take a look
at this link:

databinding much better :-)
