Binding cutsom type value to Control

ElCachubrey

Hi all. Is exists way to binding cutsom type value to Control through databinding Example

//My cutom type

public class CLASSIFIED
{
public CLASSIFIED(double Val)
{
this._value = Val;
}

    private double \_value;

    public static implicit operator CLASSIFIED(double Val)  
    {
        return new CLASSIFIED(Val);
    }

    public static implicit operator double(CLASSIFIED CLASSIFIED)  
    {
        return CLASSIFIED.\_value;
    }
}

//My Source provider
class SourceProvider
{
     CLASSIFIED Index {get{...} set{...}}
}

//My binding

...
control.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", \_sourceProvider, "Index");
//This way data binding not understand what binding value have double type!!!
...

I know what i can do it through IFormatProvider interface like what : control.DataBindings.Add("EditValue", _sourceProvider, "Index", null, null, _myFormatProvider); But what about other way, derive my custom type from AN INTERFACE what DataBindings.Add(...) recognize and format my custom type value automaticaly???? public class CLASSIFIED : ISomeInterfceWhatDataBindingRecoginze { .... } } THANK!!!

This[^] might be a good place to start looking.
