How can I bind a WPF TextBlock to a text file? I want for the TextBlock to display the content of the file. You need to read the file into a string in memory and bind to that string instead.

I am binding some property into my TextBlock : <TextBlock Text="{Binding Status}" Foreground="{Binding RealTimeStatus,Converter={my:RealTimeStatusToColorConverter}}" /> Status is simple text and RealTimeStatus is enum .

Check out the author's block post on the subject. There's also a

How can I bind 2 properties to a single TextBlock.Text (eg. first name and last name or current value and max value)? something like: // IValueConverter public object Convert( .... ) { return string.Format("{0} (max: {1})", currentValue, maxValue); } The problem is I want TextBlock.Text to be updated when currentValue or maxValue has changed. So how can I listen to changes from 2 or more properties using data binding? Is there another way than usering IValueConverter ? Silverlight 3 (on which the Windows Phone 7 framework is built) doesn't support MultiBinding, which is what you would use to
