I'm almost there, but not completely :
i have a listview binded to an observablecollection. I want the UI updated after i change the collection, and it does not work now. basically i have a listview and a button. After pressing the button a new item is added to the collection, but the UI stays the same. can someone points me to the right direction ?

thanks.

You need to add a constructor to your mainwindow, and then in the constructor you need to set the DataContext :

VB
Me.DataContext = Me

Or something like that. I am a C# programmer and have forgotten VB.
