By modifying DataSources, you configure the displayed content of Control Templates. Control Templates use DataSources to display data from business objects that are mapped to database tables and views.
All the work required to set up and configure DataSources, hooking them up to business objects, making them aware of entity relations, databinding controls to them etc. is performed intelligently by GenWise Templates. The ASP.NET 2.0 Templates provide the DataSource Configuration Dialog to control this, allowing you to:
 | Choose fields to be displayed |
| Configure which related entities are used |
