Winforms Data Binding

Using visual studio 2005, there are built in mechanisms for data binding such as using the DataGrid control and connecting it to a data source which would then produce a TableAdapter object and a BindingSource object, this would then allow data to be updated and displayed on the DataGrid control.
Much of the communication between the database and DataGrid control is happening behind the scenes using the TableAdapter, therefore is it bad practice to rely on visual studio's built in data binding mechanisms?
Should I create my own bindings purely in ADO.NET instead of relying on visual studio?
