How to replace a data source that uses direct database connection with a new one which is bound to a list of objects

This example demonstrates how to accomplish this task using the DashboardLoaded event. This approach can be used in WinForms, ASP.NET and MVC projects. Generally, all you need is to create a new data source and bind all existing items to it using the DataDashboardItem.DataSource Property. It is necessary that data members of the new data source match data members of the old one.
