Hard code!!

I saw one excellent article http://weblogs.asp.net/manishdalal/archive/2009/07/03/silverlight-3-combobox-control.aspx but it is on DataGrid, Another one http://www.microapplications.com/blog/archive/2009/05/07/330.aspx is on Webform, but it is too complicated.

is there any better way??

whack something like this in your XAML:

<dataControls:DataFormTemplateField>
    <dataControls:DataFormTemplateField.DisplayTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="hello" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </dataControls:DataFormTemplateField.DisplayTemplate>
    <dataControls:DataFormTemplateField.EditTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <ComboBox x:Name="combobox1" SelectionChanged="combobox1_SelectionChanged">
                <TextBlock Text="One" />
                <TextBlock Text="Two" />
                <TextBlock Text="Three" />
            </ComboBox>
        </DataTemplate>
    </dataControls:DataFormTemplateField.EditTemplate>
</dataControls:DataFormTemplateField>

not sure how to go about populating the combobox... maybe capture the beginingedit event and do it that way

ComboBox in a DataForm

How do I add a ComboBox to a DataForm and load it with data. I need to use a Combobox so I can make use of its SelectionChanged event.
