Detail View Controls

While creating a database from scratch is certainly a thing, most of the time we programmers are building applications that connect to existing databases. That’s what we are going to do here. In the DataGridView video we created a database. In this video we are going to build an application that connects to the databased created by the DataGridView application. In other words, when we are done here both applications will have access to the database. Both can add, edit, and delete records housed on that database. With the new Detail View Controls application, we will have individual controls actually linked to the data in the database. Each control will have its own properties. Each control will stand on its own on the form.
