>My question is: Given that there will only be one business object on most of the forms I will subclass from bxCardForm, is there any point in setting the BindingSource property of these four buttons on the table-specific forms?
You don't need to set the BindingSource property as long as you register the business object as the form's primary business object (RegisterPrimaryBizObj()).
>Everything seemed to work fine before I set the BindingSource property, and setting it didn't seem to change any behavior.
Right...if you don't specify it, MM .NET will figure it out.
>1) Should I be concerned that TableName and ViewName are both empty after the call to mmBindingStrategyBase.GetBindingSource?
No, this is expected behavior. if you bound the control to a DataView, the DataView name would show up.
>2) Was it appropriate for me to copy the above btnNew block of code into my bxCardForm?
It was!
