Don'y feel stupid ...it is a common mistake.

The normal binding uses the FieldName as the node name in the XML data file that is created. This is an option when you are NOT using a schema (that has a definiation of what the data structure shoudl be).

The Global binding allows you to tie numerous fields with the same name(presumably on different pages) to the same value. This of a customer number that needs to appear on each page. By naming the field the same on each page and setting the binding to Global you are equating all of those fields together. This ,means that if you change the value on any page, that value is reflected to all fields of that name.

Hope that helps
