Description Scott Rosenbaum CLA 2008-12-03 18:50:54 EST 
When building reports, a VERY common issue is that when a binding is first created the name does not match the actual use of the control.  Unfortunately, there is no way of re-factoring the data-binding names through the GUI.  

This means that if you want your binding names to match the logical purpose of item, you end up manually re-factoring the binding and the controls in the XML.  YUCK.
