BindingNavigator Control Sample

This sample demonstrates how to use a BindingNavigator control bound to a BindingSource component.

The BindingNavigator control derives from ToolStrip and contains a pre-populated set of buttons for navigating through data in a BindingSource component. The functionality behind these buttons is extensible. In this sample, the New button behavior is overridden.

For information about using the samples, see the following topics:
