it's okay, I get it know Bob, but thanks anyway. I was struggling about the binding part but I understand it now.

Nice... Getting it. Available in Macedonia.

I have been reading about it and I think I understand how it works, but thanks anyway.

It seemed that I should've read more on data binding.

Hi Bob & channel9 community,

I am struggling to understand how does the

" { Binding etc. } "

works and have few questions about it.

 E.G. file MainPage.xaml.cs

I created a public class with public static members:

 public class MyClass
    {
        private static string field="Hei there! ";
        public static string MyProperty
        {
            get
            {
                return field;
            }
            set
            {
                field = value;
            }
        }

        public void DoSomething()
        {
        }

        public MyClass()
        {
            /* Set default values for the props and fields */
        }
    }

then in the MainPage.xaml:

I tried to bind the static string value to the TextBlock Text like this:

<TextBlock Text="{ Binding MyClass.MyProperty }" Style="{StaticResource BasicTextStyle}"/>

but it seems that I missed something...

I read some articles on MSDN forums but I don't understand WHAT and HOW  ( code behind )  can I bind it to a Text, Style , Source, etc. . I know it has something to do with the Binding Type.

Hi Bob, great videos , I watched C# Fundamentals: Development for Absolute Beginners and it really helped me. From today I will be starting Windows Store apps for Absolute Beginners with C# . Your approach is very helpful.

Thanks ,
