I created a simple test Access database with a 'ColA' and 'ColB'. Populated it with junk test string values. Then I created a VS C# .Net forms project and added a binding source pointing to that DB, and added a DataGridView and a BindingNavigator.
After pointing the DataGridView and the BindingNavigator to the DataSet IN THE DESIGNER, when the form is executed the populated data appears in the DataGridView.
But it seems to only be a one way relationship. If I change a value in the grid, it isn't updated in the DB. Is it possible to make it a two-way communication, and if so, how?
(I imagine I can handle cell leaving events and such, and do it through queries, but I thought databinding was supposed to eliminate some of that hassle.)
What I have tried:
I've tried following along with
