Dynamic Binding to Data Table

[Matt Tapia]

I am dynamically binding the .ItemsSource and .DataContext property to a datatable in code like such:

 

Dim myDataTable As New DataTable

 

myDataTable = GetDataTable() 'returns datatable with multiple rows

 

 

Me.myRadCarousel.ItemsSource = myDataTable

However, the carousel shows blank images, even though they exist. I double-click on the carousel to get the file name and I get the file name no issue. my datatable contains 1 field (filename)

 

<

 

Window.Resources>

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:CarouselDataRecordPresenter}">

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter Property="Template">

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter.Value>

 

 

 

 

 

 

<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type telerik:CarouselDataRecordPresenter}">

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Grid IsHitTestVisible="False" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"

 

 

 

 

 

VerticalAlignment="Stretch">

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Image Source="{Binding Path=Fields[filename].Value}" Height="400" Width="400" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Grid>

 

 

 

 

 

 

</ControlTemplate>

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Setter.Value>

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Setter>

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Style>

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Window.Resources>

Hi Matt Tapia,

It seems that the binding to Fields[filename].Value is incorrect. Could you try to setup your binding like that:

<Image Source="{Binding Path=Data[filename]}" Height="400" Width="400" />
<!--Where "filename" is a column name of your DataRow-->

Data[FirstName]
