Question

I am converting some ASP.Net controls to Silverlight. Is there something similar to ASP.Net’s EditItemTemplate in Silverlight’s DataGrid or ListBox?

Answer 1

Edit templating in the Silverlight DataGrid is performed at the cell level. If the DataGrid default choices are not what you need then you need to use the DataGridTemplateColumn and define both a CellTemplate and a CellEditingTemplate.

The ListBox does not support the context of an “edit mode” however you can supply an ItemTemplate which contains control such as TextBox which will allow editing of the underlying data.
