StringFormat on Combobox Displaymemberpath

Question

I am trying to use StringFormat on DisplayMemberPath property of a ComboBox (WPF). But i don't know even if this is possible. can someone help me with some ideas.

I am trying to do something like this:

  <ComboBox DisplayMemberPath="{Binding Path=MyDateField, StringFormat={}{0:dd/MM/yyyy}}" Name="CmbName" Width="120" />

But it isn't working...

Thx All

Answer 1

simply use the ItemStringFormat property (works only if IsEditable="False")

<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding YourItems}"
  DisplayMemberPath="MyDateField"
  ItemStringFormat="{}{0:dd/MM/yyyy}" />

hope this helps
