To clarify, I want to know what data bindings/paths etc... belong to the displaying of the data in the ComboBox and what I need to click on the element in the combobox and pass it to a datagrid.

Since my UI is in XAML/WPF, how do I instantiate a new Form Load method to insert this.DataContext?

Okay. So my class is Agent. It has a property in it called "FirstName". On formload then I need a declaration like this: this.DataContext = Agent; Right?

I am new. And I see above in your response you did add in a sufficient example. Thank you for all your help and sources.

So basically, I have added this into my Canvas: TextBox Text ="{Binding FirstName}". My next and final question is: how does this declaration know to associate the right textbox to the Property it goes with. So, for example, my textbox name is _arFirstName and my Property in code is FirstName. I dont see anywhere in the snippet you gave me a way to tell it to associate the right textbox with the Property name.

Is this declared within the XAML where the textbox resides? I guess what I am even more confused about is how to associate the name of the textbox (in this case: _arFirstName) with the binding you described.

Apparently my formatted code won't display in a comment box. See above in my original question for my added code.

I am not sure where to declare this piece of code then in my xaml (thats how new I am to this). I understand its linkage to the property in the domain's corresponding business object. And does TextBox "Text" refer to the name of the textbox?

In my declaration on my canvas I have this:
<textbox canvas.left="93" canvas.top="8" height="23" x:name="_arFirstName" width="120" isreadonly="True">
Would your code declaration go in after this?

In the Agent business class/domain object FirstName does have a corresponding public property. Why would it be trivial to bind to the property then if the property is the only intermediary between the textbox and the data column?

I am operating through a domain (business object) of the corresponding type name. It isn't a direct link. The insert and update queries done through the textbox to the column are through that domain class. Is this what you are referring to?
