hello I am Trying to bindthe Password Property of my passwordbox to the Password property of my User object like this
Password
but it is giving some error,
AG_E_RUNTIME_MANAGED_UNKNOWN_ERROR at System.windows.application.loadcomponent(object component,Uri ResourceLocator).
but if i set the Password Property from the code behind it work fine and displays the password chars on the UI.
UserPasswordBox.Password = CurrentUser.Password;
where UserPasswordBox is my PasswordBox Control

You cannot bind to the password field. I personally do not see the need for it. The idea of a password is confirm identy. If the user does not have to enter the password why have one.

I need the password field for user to be able to create an id and also at later stage to Update the Password

work around is to manually set the field. and take care if it is changed or not
