I've been experimenting with WPF and just downloaded the toolkit which includes a DataGrid control. Does anyone know where I can find a fully worked through example of binding a database table to the WPF DataGrid?
Here is a blog that has some articles on DataGrid binding.

I've seen a blog on CodeFluent Entities's site about auto-generating a WPF UI using CodeFluent Entities and Syncfusion but I have Telerik WPF controls and wanted to know whether anyone has already done this and can point me in the right direction?
The Syncfusion producer is based on a template, so you can get a copy of the code and replace the Syncfusion controls by the Telerik controls in the template files. For instance you can replace the Syncfusion DataGrid by a Telerik DataGrid in the file EntityView.xaml.tpl.
ok, I'm totally confused. I'm new to WPF (don't know how many times I read this sentence in the last week) and I'm investigating in DataGrids for my project.
The DataGrid in WPF 4.0 does not provide too many features. Can anybody tell me if that grid is the same as in the WPF Toolkit?
Did the code from that project became part of .NET4.0?
If not, is there anywhere documentation on the WPF Toolkit DataGrid?
thank you
As far as I know DataGrid started as external control in WPF Toolkit but then was included in standard control library in WPF 4 (see related topic). So if you`re using WPF 4 then you don`t need no external toolkits to use DataGrid, and all it`s documentation can be found on MSDN: DataGrid.
There is a topic about datagrids here. It`s old but still more or less actual.
In WPF there is listview but no GridView control. I am familier with ASP.NET's GridView how to insert,update and delete, its events like Rowupdating, RowEditing etc. Now I want to do same things in WPF. Please provide some working example.
I think you're looking for the DataGrid. Here's a CodeProject article with examples and code: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/WPFDataGridExamples.aspx
You should use the DataGrid control.
Here are the examples for using WPF ListView and WPF DataGrid
Is there a DataGrid component that behaves the same in WPF and Silverlight? There are some small differences in DataGrids from MS (WPF and Silverlight Toolkits). For example, while WPF version has CanUserAddRows property, Silverlight version does not.
I gave up - there nothing like that so I have to care about differences in the code by myself.
Edit: Most of the differences can be handled by styles - simply create one DataGrid style for WPF and one for Silverlight.
Just wondering if anyone knows about what performance is like for the WPF Toolkit DataGrid for inserting rows to the top of the visible area. I know that ListBox and ListView will recreate all new visuals for all of the rows that are pushed down, which is a major impact on performance; I was wondering if the WPF Toolkit DataGrid does the same thing.
WPF Toolkit DataGrid should do 'Virtualization', which is what in Microsoft speak is 'reusing WPF objects' (see for example http://www.ytechie.com/2008/09/disabling-wpf-datagrid-virtualization.html).
