If you are talking about populating it in the IDE, in that case, I suppose you mean you design visually and the IDE generates the code, right?
If so, the IDE just has to generate the creation of the model, which in most cases would be a: model = new Model (data); and then create the list box. That is exactly the same as with a non-MVC list: the IDE will have the generate the code to fill in the list, so it is exactly the same situation. Everything you can do with non-MVC, you can do it with MVC, and a lot of things you can't do with non-MVC are possible with MVC, so, yes, MVC is a more powerful approach, and does not complicate things at all for the basic cases (fill a simple list box and forget about it). cheers -- Rodrigo Moya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
