Binding Text Boxes

Text boxes are simple data-binding controls. Here are the commonly bound properties displayed when you expand the (DataBindings) property:

• Tag

• Text

You can, of course, bind any property; just click the (Advanced) entry in the (DataBindings) property. You can see an example of data binding with this control in the DataBinding example on the CD-ROM in Figure 21.3, where I've bound the Text property to the authors.au_lname field in the pubs database.
