Thanks Cetin,

It does look like a set method but it's not, here's what i'm trying to do: all my controls have 3 custom properties for databinding:
//Lets say we are in a textBox
this.BindTo = "Name"; // the field name to bind to
this.BindTable = "Table1"; // the table to bind to
this.BindProperty = "Text"; // The property of this control to bind
this.SetBinding()

private void SetBinding()
{ 
  this.Databinding.Add( this.BindProperty, this.BindTable, this.BindTo );
}
the problem i have is to pass the object from "this.BindTable" to the DataBinding.Add method.
