Need databinding help

[Michael Rodriguez]

Does anyone know how I can bind to the Enabled property of a toolstrip
button? That class doesn't seem to expose the DataBindings property...

TIA,

Michael,

ToolStrip derives from ScrollableControl which ultimately derives from
Control, so you definitely should be able to bind to the Enabled property.

Can you show some code?

Hi Nicholas,

Actually, I need to bind to the enabled property of a button on the
toolstrip. The ToolStripButton class descends from ToolStripItem which only
descends from Component. What I was trying to do something like this:

MyToolstripButton.DataBindings.Add("Enabled",
MyBusinessObjectCollection, "EnableSave");

This does not compile, of course, because ToolStripButton does not have a
DataBindings property.

Any ideas?

Mike
