Can anyone tell me how to get the second level items to behave like the first level items? I would expect any level that has children to show an expander. In my example, the Send Items header should have an expander icon.

Hi Rod,

The RadPanelBar supports only two levels of items. Any items defined deeper in the hierarchy won't be rendered. To achieve your requirement you can use RadTreeView instead of RadPanelBar, and style its nodes so that it looks as the panelbar. 

Another approach is to use RadTreeView in the RadPanelBarItem that you want to be expandable. For example:
<telerik:RadPanelBarItem>
    <telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header>
        <telerik:RadTreeView>
            <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Send Items">
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Personal Folder" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Delete Items" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Inbox" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Send Items" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="OutBox" />
                <telerik:RadTreeViewItem Header="Search Folders" />
            </telerik:RadTreeViewItem>
        </telerik:RadTreeView>
    </telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header>
</telerik:RadPanelBarItem>
