I've seen a solution for this problem from other person with same problem as it is: Add "System.Web" to may references then imports System.Web.UI then by using DataBinder such this: msgbox (DataBinder.eval(MyBindingSource.Current(), "CustomerID")) but another problem pop up.. when i use the addnew method of my bindingsource an error halted me.. saying that my list is readonly and has no way to execute my addnew... MyBindingSource.Addnew() Please help! thanks in advance...

Hi, The context of which you are using to try and get the customerId is incorrect, the reason is because the current item that you are trying to get data from is an anonymous type. This type doesn't have any default members like the exception states. Unfortunately, I don't have any exact support for this sample code you put, but if you were using a real type (even if you made the type yourself using a custom class) you could typecast the item contained in MyBindingSource.Current to retrieve the data from it correctly. hope this helps
