Can't view Access Database in a grid for a User Control

I am at the beggining stages of learning how to import an Access database to a Listbox in a form project in Visual Basic .net 2005 by doing the following:

1. Importing an Access database to my Data Source

2. Draging from tootbox a Dataset then linking my Database to it

3. Dragging in a Bindingsource and linking it to my Dataset

4. Dragging in a Listbox then linking it to my Bindingsource and table name.

After running program I can see the data.

The problem is that I was trying to create a User Control that would do the same thing and after running it my form shows up correctly but no data shows up on my listbox.

My goal is to create a User control that accesses a Database in order to use data as a Property choices.

Public Enum Input_Type

Circle = 1

Square = 2

Graph = 3

Text = 4

Listbox = 5

End Enum

Private mInputType As Input_Type = Input_Type.Circle

Public Property InputType() As Input_Type

Get

InputType = mInputType

End Get

Set(ByVal value As Input_Type)

If mInputType <> value Then

mInputType = value

Me.Invalidate()

End If

End Set

End Property

I wish to replace Input_Type Enum with a Database Table. HELP PLEASE!!!!!

Thanks.
