First Claim
1. A method for using a data binding, the data binding linking a data store and a content region, the method comprising:
- exposing a data binding interface, using a method, property, or event associated with the data binding interface, wherein the method, property, or event returns an object allowing manipulation of the data binding, data, or other objects associated with the data binding.

Abstract
An object model allows code to be developed using a programming environment to access the functionality of an application, in a word processing application, for example. The object model may be used to manipulate one or more data bindings in an application. Code may also be developed using a programming environment for reacting to changes, in either direction, of a content region or a node in XML data associated with one or more data bindings. Code may be developed to define data bindings between file content and content within data in a data store. Additionally, code may be developed that reacts to changes within a bound region of a file or within a data store, trapping or intercepting events, such as edits, additions, deletions, etc.

- 12. A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a computer, will cause the computer to expose a data binding interface, the data binding interface operative to expose a method, property, or event associated with the data binding interface, wherein the method, property, or event returns an object allowing manipulation of the data binding, data, or at least one object associated with the data binding.
- 17. A system operable to provide access to a link between a data store and a content region, the system comprising a data binding interface operable to expose a method, property, or event associated with the data binding interface, wherein the method, property, or event returns an object allowing manipulation of the data binding, data, or at least one object associated with the data binding.
