Hi, you could bind the ItemsSource property to an ObservableCollection<Data> object where the Data is something like this:

public class Data
{
    public string Message_Name { get; set; }

    public DateTime DateTime { get; set; }
}

You could then add items to the ObservableCollection object instead of adding directly to the Items property.

Hi,

you can add the datas to datatable or dataset , and set the datatable as the datacontext for listview as

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
            dt.Columns.Add("Message_Name", typeof(System.String));
            dt.Columns.Add("DateTime", typeof(System.DateTime));

            DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
            dr[0] = "test";
            dr[1] = DateTime.Now;
            dt.Rows.Add(dr);

            DataRow dr1 = dt.NewRow();
            dr1[0] = "test 2";
            dr1[1] = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);
            dt.Rows.Add(dr1);

            DataRow dr2 = dt.NewRow();
            dr2[0] = "test 3";
            dr2[1] = DateTime.Now.AddDays(2);
            dt.Rows.Add(dr2);

            lstViewLogWindow.DataContext = dt;

System.Data.DataTable dt = new System.Data.DataTable();

dt.Columns.Add("Message_Name", typeof(System.String));

dt.Columns.Add("LogDate", typeof(System.DateTime));

DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();

dr[1] = DateTime.Now;

Hi,

<GridViewColumn Header="DateTime" Width="Auto" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path= DateTime}" />

in  above XAML, you are given binding column name as 'DateTime'.

but in your datatable you are named as 'LogDate'.

change the column name as 'DateTime'.

And , you have added only one row to datatable, so it will show only one row.

HI Vasanth..

I have changed the Header name..but it doesnt take it..

Actually I should list all the msg's in the log window.. so I should nt clear it everytime right(by creating new data table...)

My req is.. if I select 1. downloading of data.. then on click of button.. the log window should have the msg.. "downloading started.." 08/09/09 ... 2. downloading stopped... then log window msg should append to the first msg(previously printed....) " downloading stopped 08/09/09

downloading started.. 08/09/09

downloading stopped 08/09/09

But as of now i see only downloading started msg.. not the other msgs...

Please help me
