With MMF, you only need to set the BindingSource to your Business Object and the BindingSourceMember to the name of the DataTable/DataView and column name like:

MyTable.CustName

You don't need to set the Text property nor call DataBind. The framework handles that automatically.

>Plus, it seems that you need to do this a little easier ... that's way too much stuff to have to type just to databind each textbox.

>Isn't there some kind of DataBinding eventhandler in MM's TextBox base class? (Is this a WebForm or a WinForm?)
