This is what I have, I not able to populate the listbox. Any Help?
This is wht I have in my Window.Resources
                    Source="/Database/Recipe.xml"
                   XPath="Tables/Table"/>
                        Source="{StaticResource Recipe}">

                                 Direction="Ascending"/>


This is my XML

http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

  117
  16/20 Shrimp
  Box
  3
  4
  0.00347222222222222
  PULL
  3

This is what I'm using to bind to the listbox
   DisplayMemberPath="Station"
     ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource CallRecipes}}"
     Width="305"/>
Where did I go wrong?
Thanks

Hi,

   Just try changing the

                       Source="/Database/Recipe.xml"
                   XPath="Tables/Table"/>

to,




Here in XPATH it should be like XPath="Rootnode/Collectionnode". For your code snippet rootnode="NewDataSet1" and collectionsnode="Tables". In listbox try this code.

                 ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource CallRecipes},XPath=Table}"
              >











Hope this would help you

I figure it out Change Expander Header to binding and Clean up the code and it works. I do have more questions since I'm still trying to understand. Is it possible when a user clicks on the one expander control the other expanders close?

any thoughts?

Thank You

Some progress, This is what I have so far. If anyone wants to jump in and help That would great!
The XML Data is:

http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

  117
  16/20 Shrimp
  Box
  3
  4
  0.00347222222222222
  PULL

My Filter/Sorting XAML is
                    Source="Database/Recipes.xml"
                   XPath="NewDataSet1/Table">

                        Source="{StaticResource Recipe}">





My ListBox Style:












My ListBox Binding:
                  ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource CallRecipes}}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Width="243.5">













What currently I have is a Listbox the Expander Control populates but no header. I cant build it crashes

Any thoughts?

Thank you,,
Still some issues If I Take XPath=Table out it populates the box. If I change the TextBox Binding to Station it populates the list with doubles(no filter on the collection). Thank you very close. Ideally I want the Stations to be in a expander tool and when expanded the recipes of that station would populate.
Any Thoughts?
