    Hi,

    If I understand you correctly, your main window contains a ribbon with a Tab that contains a RibbonGroup.  The Ribbon Group contains two user controls, one with a xamComboEditor.   On a button click from another user control in the same Ribbon Group you want to be able to retrieve the items from the xamComboEditor.

    You can access the xamComboEditor in the other user control thru the visual tree.  On the button click you can reference the Parent which is a RibbonGroup and then identify the Items looking for the user control.

    (this.Parent as Infragistics.Windows.Ribbon.RibbonGroup ).Items[n] which would be the user control with the xamComboEditor

    ((this.Parent as Infragistics.Windows.Ribbon.RibbonGroup ).Items[n] as UserControl1).xmComboEditor1

    If your button is in a different RibbonGroup from the xamComboEditor you would need to go up the tree a little further but that’s the basic idea.

    Please let me know if this information has been helpful.
