BindingSource Component
Encapsulates a data source for binding to controls.
The xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component serves two purposes. First, it provides a layer of indirection when binding the controls on a form to data. This is accomplished by binding the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component to your data source, and then binding the controls on your form to the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component. All further interaction with the data, including navigating, sorting, filtering, and updating, is accomplished with calls to the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component.
Second, the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component can act as a strongly typed data source. Adding a type to the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource component with the xref:System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource.Add%2A method creates a list of that type.
