PropertyManager.SuspendBinding and PropertyManager.ResumeBinding are two methods that allow the temporary suspension and resumption of data binding. You typically suspend data binding if the user must be allowed to make several edits to data fields before validation occurs. For example, if one field must be changed in accordance with a second, but where validating the first field would cause the second field to be in error. A call to BindingManagerBase.IsBindingSuspended will always return false if the System.Windows.Forms.PropertyManager has a data source, regardless of whether BindingManagerBase.SuspendBinding has been called.
