If the DataSource Connection property is not set, then DataSource will use the default connection object, which is usually the first one created. In your code, this is the "Private DatabaseConnection As New Connection", which is not initialized. So the 'Driver name missing' error, because DataSource tries to open that connection object during form instanciation, before Form_Open is called. Another point: DataSource is a container. Every other control that depends on it must be put *inside* it.
