Through a direct key binding, no, you cannot bind to a field twice.

However you can bind to the field once via a normal column and then use an unbound column and set a value converter on the unbound column to display the value.

Something along these lines:

       <ig:XamGrid x:Name="grid">

            <ig:XamGrid.Columns>

                <ig:TextColumn Key="MyField"></ig:TextColumn>

                <ig:UnboundColumn Key="Extra" ></ig:UnboundColumn>

            </ig:XamGrid.Columns>

        </ig:XamGrid>

    public partial class MainPage : UserControl

    {

        public MainPage()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

            List<MyClass> l = new List<MyClass>();

            l.Add(new MyClass() { MyField = "Hello" });

            grid.ItemsSource = l;

            ((UnboundColumn)grid.Columns["Extra"]).ValueConverter = new MyConverter();

        }

    }

    public class MyClass

    {

        public string MyField { get; set; }

    }

    public class MyConverter : IValueConverter

    {

        #region IValueConverter Members

        object IValueConverter.Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)

        {

            return ((MyClass)value).MyField;

        }

        object IValueConverter.ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)

        {

            return value;

        }

        #endregion

    }

Hi,

I have another question related to the columns. Is it possible to provide a way such that by using the Silverlight XamGrid  to bind two columns to the same property?

Thanks,

Alin

Thank you  both for your quick answers.
