Wierd Form problem

[pruebens]

Hopefully someone knows where I'm going wrong.

 

I have a form that connects to a database and has labels and text boxes and checkboxes on in. Every control is attached to the database to get it's info/text. When I attatch the checkboxes to the database everything in my textboxes disappears. when I undo it the information in the textboxes appears as it's supposed to.

 

What the heck am I doing wrong?

Sounds a little odd. Can you post your source code so we can have a look?

[pruebens]

unfortunately no.......because of some security issues. And if I take out teh sections in question then it wouldn't help much........which I realize makes this like looking for a needle in a haystack.

[wyrd]

Understandable. Hopefully someone who has had a similar problem will come along and answer the question. :)

Reasons like this are exactly why data binding is such a poor technology. Save yourself the trouble they cause and set the TextBox/CheckBox info using the OLE or SQL data objects found under System.Data.

So I would assume that I Import System.data

 

But then how would I bind a control to the SQL object? Remember I'm a n00b
