title: Textbox data binding
body: <p>When using WebForms for stuff, you tend to end up with a lot of textboxes on the page, which means you also tend to end up with the back and forth data binding code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>tbMyTextBox.Text = MyViewObjectDataClass.MyStringProperty;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and</p>
  
  <pre><code>MyViewObjectDataClass.MyStringProperty = tbMyTextBox.Text;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This can get quite repetitive....</p>
  
  <p>I can automate the mappings between my view object and my domain object using AutoMapper, which leads me to the question...</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to do the ASP.Net form element to view object automagically?  Without resorting to dozens of the above lines?</p>
  
  <p>Yes, I could just switch to MVC, but that isn't an option for a lot of ongoing projects.</p>
