If you are binding to collection of custom objects such as Person and that class has a property such as BirthDate you could do the following:

First, create DateTimeConverter class as such:

Imports System.Windows.Data

Public Class DateTimeConverter
Implements IValueConverter

Public Function Convert(ByVal value As Object, _
ByVal targetType As System.Type, _
ByVal parameter As Object, _
ByVal culture As System.Globalization.CultureInfo) As Object _
Implements System.Windows.Data.IValueConverter.Convert

Dim DateValue As DateTime = value
Return DateValue.ToShortDateString()

End Function

Public Function ConvertBack(ByVal value As Object, _
ByVal targetType As System.Type, _
ByVal parameter As Object, _
ByVal culture As System.Globalization.CultureInfo) As Object _
Implements System.Windows.Data.IValueConverter.ConvertBack

Dim StrValue As String = value.ToString()
Dim ResultDateTime As DateTime

If DateTime.TryParse(StrValue, ResultDateTime) Then
Return ResultDateTime
End If

Return value

End Function

End Class

Next, add xmlns to to your projects namespace so you can get reference to your new class such as:
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Silverlight_DataGrid"

Next, depending on what type of control you are using to bind to, add reference to your converter for date column. In this case, I have single column in grid, which is bound to DataGridTextColumn. The property in my class i'm binding to is BirthDate.

<data:DataGrid x:Name="myDataGrid" Grid.Row="1"
AlternatingRowBackground="AliceBlue"
Background="WhiteSmoke"
BorderBrush="DarkBlue" BorderThickness="2"
CanUserResizeColumns="True"
CanUserSortColumns="True"
Opacity="8"
AutoGenerateColumns="False">

<data:DataGrid.Columns>

<data:DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding BirthDate, Converter={StaticResource DateConverter}}" />

</data:DataGrid.Columns>

</data:DataGrid>

GridSplitter Cursor

I have a WPF form with a gridsplitter. The cursor is set to SizeWE, but it does not show the resize cursor on a mouseover. I can use it for resizing, so the control can grab the mouse.
Has anyone seen this problem? Any ideas?

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem.
here is my complete code:

<Grid Background="SteelBlue" x:Name="mainGrid">
    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="250"/>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="2*" />
        <ColumnDefinition Width="250" />
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition />
        <RowDefinition Height="25" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <Border BorderThickness="4" BorderBrush="SteelBlue"  Background="White">
        <WFDesigner:WorkflowListView x:Name="WorkflowList" Margin="10"/>
    </Border>

    <WFDesigner:WorkflowDetailView x:Name="WorkflowDetail" Margin="0,4" Grid.Column="1" Background="White"/>

    <GridSplitter HorizontalAlignment="Right" Grid.Column="1" ResizeBehavior="CurrentAndNext" Width="4" Background="Red" />

    <Border BorderThickness="0,4,4,4" BorderBrush="SteelBlue"  Grid.Column="2" Background="White">
        <Grid x:Name="ToolboxProperties" DockPanel.Dock="Right">
            <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                <RowDefinition Height="2*" />
                <RowDefinition Height="1*" />
            </Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <ContentControl Content="{Binding ToolboxControl}"/>
            <ContentControl DataContext="{Binding SelectedItem}" Content="{Binding Designer.PropertyInspectorView}" Grid.Row="1"/>
        </Grid>
    </Border>

    <StatusBar Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="3" >
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Status}" Margin="5,0" />
    </StatusBar>
</Grid>

I tried overriding it by setting "Cursor" value in the GridSplitter XAML definition but it didn't work.

Any idea?

Hi, This is what I do

<GridSplitter Grid.Column="0" ResizeDirection="Columns" Background="LightGray" Width="5" MouseEnter="GridSplitter_MouseEnter" MouseLeave="GridSplitter_MouseLeave"/>

private void GridSplitter_MouseEnter(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
      {
          if (this.Cursor != Cursors.Wait)
              Mouse.OverrideCursor = Cursors.SizeWE;
      }

      private void GridSplitter_MouseLeave(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
      {
          if (this.Cursor != Cursors.Wait)
              Mouse.OverrideCursor = Cursors.Arrow;
      }

I first check if the mouse is already in Waiting mode, as I dont want the users to be able to resize the app while I am doing some other stuff.

Hope it helps

hi,
try to set the cursor directly to the gridspliter.
you can do this in you constructor
mygridSpliter.Cursor = Cursors.SizeWE;

Setting the splitter cursor does not seem to work either. My code from the mouseEnter event.

private void GridSplitter_MouseEnter(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
GridSplitter gridSplitter = sender as GridSplitter;

if (gridSplitter.Name == "Splitter1")
{
Splitter1.Cursor = Cursors.SizeWE;
}

}
