Data Sources

The Essential Grid offers a whole artillery of extremely flexible databinding options. Essential Grid offers built in data binding support for the following data sources :

• DataTable
• DataView
• DataSet
• BindingSource
• BindingList
• List
• XML data
• Single dimensional array
• Any component that implements the collection interfaces like IList, ITypedList, IBindingList, etc.

Essential Grid also supports binding individual cells to datasources. Among others, this can come in useful in cases where a ComboBox's choices need to be based on a query from a foreign table.
