                          Background="#FFD6E9F2" IsHighlighted="True" IsReadOnly="True" TabIndex="1">
        <telerikInput:RadComboBox.ItemTemplate >
          <DataTemplate>
            <Grid Margin="3,3,3,3" Width="230">
              <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="30" />
                <ColumnDefinition Width="110" />
                                <ColumnDefinition Width="90" />
              </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
              <TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Foreground="Black" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="8" Text="{Binding Item}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,0,10,0"/>
              <TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Foreground="Black" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="8" Text="{Binding nombreAuxiliar}" HorizontalAlignment="Left"/>
                            <TextBlock Grid.Column="2" Foreground="Black" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="8" Text="{Binding ValorBase}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />
            </Grid>
          </DataTemplate>
        </telerikInput:RadComboBox.ItemTemplate>
      </telerikInput:RadComboBox>

In this code, I need show when isdowndrownopen=true, the textblock "valorBase" as currency.

Hi,

Thank you for the question.

To achieve your goal you can create a formatting value converter for the TextBlock. You can see an example here. Then you can bind it like:

<TextBlock Text="{Binding ValorBase, Converter={StaticResource formatConverter}, ConverterParameter='Valor Base: {0}'}"/>

Hope that helps.

If you have further questions please feel free to ask again.

Best wishes,
