So i'm currently making a basic WinForms application. I need to do grab some data from a Database and have done so as I would in ASP.Net, using LINQ-SQL. Now every tutorial i've read on the internet thus far is focused on DataSets, DataRows and all the horrible .Net 2.0 stuff.
I also need a basic Parent -> Child Combo-box arrangement, but can't seem to get anything working.
I want to conform to the standard .Net Winforms way of doing things, but it seems like LINQ and LINQ to Entities weren't designed for use with WinForms or am I just looking in the wrong place?
Anyone got some good links on databinding to LINQ-SQL or LINQ-Entity Datasources. I would preferably like some sort of built-in CRUD functionality as well, if at all possible.
