| ActionScript 2.0 Components Language Reference > DataSet component > Using the DataSet component | |||
You typically use the DataSet component in combination with other components to manipulate and update a data source: a connector component for connecting to an external data source, user interface components for displaying data from the data source, and a resolver component for translating updates made to the data set into the appropriate format for sending to the external data source. You can then use data binding to bind properties of these different components together.
The DataSet component uses functionality in the data binding classes. If you intend to work with the DataSet component in ActionScript only, without using the Binding and Schema tabs in the Component inspector to set properties, you'll need to import the data binding classes into your FLA file and set required properties in your code. See Making data binding classes available at runtime.
