If I have a form with multiple combo boxes and a few list boxes, is there a way to create custom query sources for each one
It would appear that I have to create a query view for each control, even though only this one form will be using it. I'm thinking along the lines of how MS Access can have a custom SQL for each control.

protected Function GetTable(byval sql as string) as DataTable
using myconn as new OleDbConnection(myConString)
using myDa as new OleDbDataAdapter(sql,myConn)
Dim dt as new DataTable()
myDa.Fill(dt)
return dt
end using
end using
end Function
usage:
MyCombo.DataSource = GetTable("select items from mytable")
MyCombo.DisplayMember = "items"
MyCombo.ValueMember = "items"
