binding a textbox to a dataset

[Guest]

im building a sql-based database client and for some reason all of the tutorials on how to do so use a datagrid to modify the data. i want to use a textbox to display and be able to edit the data. the underlying framework seems to be in place: when i bind a datagrid to the dataset i am able to modify fields and update the database via the sqlDataAdapter.Update() function. however, when i bind the text property of my text field to the dataset, it displays the data ok upon Fill() but refuses to update. the Update() function returns reporting 0 rows updated sucessfully. please send any suggestions to my email at (e-mail address removed)
thank you

billybob,

Can you post an example that shows the data not being updated?

Also, you might have to indicate to the binding context that you are
done editing the row (but I am not sure how your application is doing this,
so I can't say).
