*How to connect the controls to data sources
*How to handle events

Be aware that the sample application is not meant to be an example of a real-world application. It does not represent a solution to any particular business problem. It is not meant to be a model of best practices for coding or for UI design. It is a simplified application that introduces the features of the Visual Designer.
