Change the binding of a control

In design mode, right-click the control whose binding you want to change, click Change Binding on the shortcut menu, and then do one of the following:

• To create a new field or group to bind the control to, right-click the group to which you want to add the new field or group, click Add on the shortcut menu, enter the appropriate properties in the Add Field or Group dialog box, and then click OK twice.
• To bind the control to an existing control, click the field or group you want to bind the control to, and then click OK.

Note  Because data validation is based on fields and groups, not controls, changing the field or group to which a control is bound also changes any existing data validation for that control.
