title: Databind to List<> with Entity Framework
body: <p>I have a thin dal which exposes CRUD operations using Entity Framework (.net 4.0)</p>
  
  <p>Can I have a List that gets updated automatically to reflect updates in my model? It is a single user (service) application.</p>
  
  <pre><code>List&lt;Advertisement&gt; list = dal.GetActiveAdvertisements();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>list.Count</code> is 5</p>
  
  <pre><code>dal.InsertActiveAdvertisements(newAdvertisement);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>list.Count</code> is still 5 but i would like to have 6 entries.</p>
  
  <p>Can I accomplish this?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks Jørgen</p>
