Hi I have rather strange requirement of gathering data through bunch of xml files and binding it to Listview(WPF one). this part was somehow completed . but the challenge I have is have to export the listviewitems to an Datatable and from there to Excel or csv

I googled , but with no luck ,is there any suggestions or examples ?

Just saw the replies ....I think i need to be more specific on my problem

I have bunch of files(xml ones) from which i gather certain node values and bind it to Listview. For this i have used XMl to linq technique and have binded them

var MethodList = from Elements in XpedDoc.Descendants(ns + "Method")                                  select Elements;  foreach (var XpedElement in MethodList)                { do something }


LstNodeView.Items.Add(ndXped);// adding to my list view  where ndXped is custom class


Now after this I want export all listitems into datatable to export into Excel file    Hope this helps

Why aren't you going directly from your datasource to Excel or CSV file. I don't really see why you would grab the data from the listview. If you are trying to select certain data then just create a List<> and make the datasource of the listview the List<> then use the List<> to export.
