   Hi,

  I am creating dynamic class file (Entity) which will be going to assign to Dataform which is act as dynamic data so for that data (class file)  I need to add user defined controls for each field instead of autogenerated controls to it...

  For that I need to Apply dataTemplate to DataForm programmitically.

   Thanks,

  Abhinay.

   Thanks for great help [:)],

  I found the solution for my problem.

  I for that I used following code..

   

   

   df.EditTemplate = CreteDataTemplate();
   df.OnApplyTemplate();
  
  
  private DataTemplate CreteDataTemplate()
          {
              string dtxaml = "<DataTemplate xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation' xmlns:x='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml' xmlns:dataform='clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Data.DataForm.Toolkit'    xmlns:controls='clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls'>"
                              +"<StackPanel>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField>"
                               +"<TextBox Text='{Binding Name, Mode=TwoWay}' />"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField>"
                                  +"<TextBox Text='{Binding State, Mode=TwoWay}' />"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField>"
                                  +"<TextBox Text='{Binding Country, Mode=TwoWay}' />"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField>"
                                  + "<CheckBox IsChecked='{Binding IsMetropolitanCity, Mode=TwoWay}' />"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField>"
                                 + "<ComboBox x:Name='cboSelectedUnit' ItemsSource='{Binding Sex, Mode=TwoWay}'>"
                                 +"</ComboBox>"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              + "<dataform:DataField Label='Calendar'>"
                                  + "<controls:Calendar></controls:Calendar>"
                              + "</dataform:DataField>"
                              +"</StackPanel>"
                              +"</DataTemplate>";
  
              return (DataTemplate)XamlReader.Load(dtxaml);
          }

  I too am interested in adding custom fields to the dataform. For instance, I'd like to exempt registered users from answering questions but have new users answer them. Also, I'd like to route clients to different webpages (ex. FAQ) based on the "reason for contact" box selected. Could someone point me in the right direction on how to add code for this?
