Combobox multi-column question

[Anthony Pieper]

I am trying to follow the demo to bind my data and have 2 columns appear in the combobox.

I see:

     <Grid.DataContext>
            <local:AgencyViewModel />
        </Grid.DataContext>
and

<telerikInput:RadComboBox x:Name="RadComboBox1" Width="350" SelectedIndex="0"
                        telerik:TextSearch.TextPath="Name" ItemsSource="{Binding Agency}"
                        ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ComboBoxCustomTemplate}"
                        HorizontalAlignment="Left" />


My question is where is "AgencyViewModel" coming from and for the ItemSource="{Binding Agency}", what does Agency represent, is this in the C# code itself?

If there was a better example of databinding with showing multiple columns in the combobox, that would help.

Thanks

Hi Anthony,

I extracted and simplified our online example in a separate application. The AgencyViewModel is a simple class that encapsulates the data object (Agency.cs) creation. This way you could easily modify it to use a web service or other way to retrieve your real data objects.

Please, do not hesitate to ask again if you have specific questions about the example.
