When you are writing Client-Server systems, using standard controls
instead of db-aware controls gives you a great deal of flexibility.
For example, all the db-aware controls I have used will lose their
data
as soon as you disconnect from the database. When using standard
controls. You can connect to the database, run a query to return data,
populate your controls, and disconnect. This frees up a database
connection. Most commercial Client-Server databases have a non-trivial
cost for each simultaneous database connection.
There are many other reasons, this is just one. If you want your
applications to work exactly the way you want, using someone
else's component could cause you as much work as writing you own
code when trying to get around undesired component behavior.
