      • I have a ComboBox in my app that's bound to a collection. I would like to use this in a master-detail scenario where selecting the item in the ComboBox updates the field values below it. The thing is I don't see an "IsSelector" property like the one on ListBox so I'm not sure this is going to work. I guess I could work around it if needed but I wanted to see if anyone knows a clean way t

So they are not actually retrieved until they are referenced. In the May 2006 CTP, if you appended a query onto the EntitySet reference for the associated classes, the query would be packaged into a single SQL statement and

On some controls it's a direct binding, but on others I'd like to bind to the opposite of the value (if indeed the bool has a value). Is there a way to do that with binding syntax I would hope for something like {Binding Path=!MyProperty} but that doesn't seem
