How do you databind to a System.Windows.Forms.Treeview control?

by

You are correct in that there is no data binding. The reason being is that TreeViews are hierarchical data structures. That is, not a straight list. As a result the databind option is invalid to say a List structure.

Sadly it’s creating your own populate methods or buying 3rd party controls (which in the end will have their own populate methods.)

Here’s a decent MSDN article on Binding Hierarchical Data.
