First, this is the wrong newsgroup. Please use
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet.
Yes, you can create business classes that provide the data interfaces for
your custom data source. You can even write a data provider to do so. I
would buy Rocky Lhotka's "VB.NET Business Objects"--it should clear things
up nicely.

I intend to make heavy use of Windows Forms (and eventually XAML). I have a very simple but homegrown "database" that consists of essentially flat files (with no relations between the files). I would like to take advantage of the neat IDE features of .NET (forms) development (those that expose the column names) and the inherent data binding methods by providing a .NET compatible interface to my data (allowing access and update sort of automatically). I am reasonably comfortable with COM. Where should I look for information on which interfaces I must implement?. Is there sample code out there to lessen my task?
