Hi,
I'm new to C# and want to specialize in WinForm apps, and just started getting into Data Binding. In reading about multi tier applications where you have a presentation, business and database tiers. Where does data binding fit in, since data binding requires close ties to data sources? Does the presentation tier access the database tier directly, creating its own data cache, then data bind to this data cache?
Any light that you shed on this confusion would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Data Binding fit in presentation layer.

The business and data layer retrieve or update the data in a database for an ASP.NET
application. It retrieve the data and bind it to the presentation layer.

The presentation tier does not directly access the data tier.
The presentation tier communicates with the data tier by way of the data access component
in the middle tier.
