What are the pros and cons of Design-Time binding versus Run-Time binding
controls?

Our senior engineer is adamant about not binding control during design-time.

Are there differences in performance?

Is one less flexible than the other?

I know you have RAD and less errors with design-time.
 
Softengine,

There is not difference, assuming that you mean using the designer for
binding.
The designer makes the code that is needed however from both is created the
same kind of ILS.

I prefer as well to make that code myself because I have than more control
over it. While when I use the designer to do binding I am forever sticked to
strongly typed datasets and things like that. With doing it in code I can as
well much easier remove it temporally.

(And when you have a problem, you can show it to somebody else while without
that help by instance from a newsgroup, is very hard to give, what is
probably as well a problem for your senior engineer)

I hope this gives an idea.
