First, which version of Visual Studio (.NET) are you using (2002, 2003 or
2005)? The approach to data binding differs significantly between versions.
If 2005...
Look in the Data category in the Properties Window. You'll find
(Databindings). To use these properties effectively, you'll need to learn
about ADO.NET and the VS 2005 data access model.
