There is a new concept in SharePoint 2010 which is called external list. you can fetch data from external entities and LOB. we soon are going to see in detail how we can get the data from external entities.
This is the simple method to determine if the list is external list or regular internal list of SharePoint. this may be important at some point because external list does not participate in workflows and event handlers. we cannot attach handlers on external list.
list.HasExternalDataSource is the property which tells us that the list is external source or not. (where list is a list object of which you want to check)
