I am using vb.net 2005 pro

I have a form with many Combo Boxes that are populated from a database.
In fact many of these combo boxes are populated from from the same
table, but with different where criteria. The data does not change
often.

What is the best stategy in setting this combo boxes up? Create a pile
table adaptors for each lookup, or create populate them in code. The
idea of populating them in code is that the application hits the
database once when the application starts, and then checks for updates
at various time instead of lookup the data every time the form opens.

What I am really looking for is right way to think about this.
