I am familiar with basic, brain-dead databinding, but I feel I need
something a little more complex for my current application. I would like a
few pointers or advice.
I have a main form with a DataGrid bound to a DataView object. I have a
custom control (DetailPanel), with a bunch of labels on it, that will
display all the details related to the row selected in the DataGrid.
How do I go about making sure the Labels on the DetailPanel display
information related to the row currently selected in the DataGrid?
I know how to create Binding objects on the DetailPanel that *should*
display the appropriate column of data in the appropriate Label (an
assumption at this point):
Now, what do I need to link the Main Form and the custom control? Do I need
a CurrencyManager? Two CurrencyManagers? Something else entirely?
Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.

Visual Basic:
Dim bindText As New Binding("Text", Me.DataSource, "myTable.myColumn")
Label1.DataBindings.Add(bindText)
