Hello! 
I want to have ComboBox with only 2 values. I have already:

<telerik:RadComboBox HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="radComboBox1" Grid.Column="1" Height="22" SelectedIndex="0">
<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Content="Simple" />
<telerik:RadComboBoxItem Content="Advanced" />
</telerik:RadComboBox>

How can I assign values to these items? Example:
Content="Simple" -> Value="1";
Content="Advanced" -> Value="2";

Is this available? How can I make this?

Hello Grzesiek,

What you can do is use binding to an object. So your object can have two values one to be displayed and one to be used as SelectedVlue. More on how to achieve that you can find here, also you can see this Silverlight demo or its WPF equivalent. To specify which one to be displayed you can use DisplayMemberPath and to specify witch one to be used as selected value - SelectedValuePath.
