#Remarks
Using the BindToLINQ method, you can easily bind the combo box to queryable data sources.
Internally, the BindToLINQ method uses our LinqServerModeDataSource component, which was specifically designed to allow the combo box to efficiently process large amounts of data. The LinqServerModeDataSource component automatically enables database server mode to optimize the execution of all LINQ queries initiated by the combo box. In this mode, the combo box loads records on demand and performs data-aware operations on the data server. This technique significantly improves the combo box’s speed and responsiveness.
