| Best way to Bind Data? |

I'm new to Object Data sources. But I started looking at the strongly typed
datasets in VS and it seems to be pretty easy to configure. My question is,
there seems to be so many to get data to a grid say: sqldatasource, object with
manuall written classes, object datasource with strongly-typed dataset,
objectdatasource with manually written classes.....
Is there one that's generally better than the others for specific times?

You are right...there are many options for DataBinding. In my opinion, the best
approach is going to be driven by the type of application it is. For instance,
if it is a very simple application, that is going to be used by only a few
people, why invest the time and overhead in going the full-blow OO approach?
That's where the benefit of using VS's RAD tools comes into play. On the other
hand, if you are writing an app with the need for heavy customization or one
that will be used across an entire organization, you would likely rethink that
approach. Once again, I just like to let the needs of the user and the scope of
the application drive my design.
