In this post i will explain how to Import/Export data of DataGrid from/to CSV file in wpf using MVVM To Import CSV to DataGrid i have created method called LoadCSV() which will load CSV data and update the DataGrid  private void LoadCSV()         {             LstEmployees.AddRange(File.ReadAllLines("csvFilePath")                                          .Skip(1)                                          .Select(v => CsvToEmployees(v))                                          .ToList());         }          In LoadCSV() method i am first reading the CSV using File clas ReadAllLines() method After that i am skip the first line becuase in first line we used to have Header for CSV file And then i am calling CsvToEmployees() which take a single line and split the text by comma and then convert it to Employees. After converting All text to Employees list i am adding the list to ObservableCollection which is Binded with DataGrid         Employees CsvToEmployees(string c

In this post i am trying to explain multiple way to handle Checked/Unchecked event in wpf using MVVM First let's create a view which contains multiple CheckBox.  All CheckBox will handle the Checked/Unchecked event differently.  CheckBoxEx.xaml <Window x:Class="PrismApp.Views.CheckBoxEx"              xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"              xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"              xmlns:prism="http://prismlibrary.com/"              prism:ViewModelLocator.AutoWireViewModel="True">     <StackPanel >         <CheckBox Content="Bind Command by passing CheckBox as CommandParameter but set command parameter type is object" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center"  Name="chkObj"                   Command="{Binding CheckedChangedCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding ElementName=chkObj}"/>

DataGridEx.xaml <Window x:Class="PrismApp.Views.DataGridEx"              xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"              xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"              xmlns:prism="http://prismlibrary.com/"              prism:ViewModelLocator.AutoWireViewModel="True">     <Grid>         <DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding LstEmployees}"                   AutoGenerateColumns="False" CanUserAddRows="False" >             <DataGrid.Columns>                 <DataGridTextColumn Header="Employee Id" Binding="{Binding EmpId}" IsReadOnly="True"/>                 <DataGridTextColumn Header="Employee Name" Binding="{Binding EmpName,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />                 <DataGridTextColumn Header="Job Title" Binding="{Binding JobTitle,UpdateSource

using System; namespace ConsoleProject {     class Program     {         static void Main(string[] args)         {             //get the method by method name and with string argument types             //Here GetMethod() will return the info of WriteLine(string value)             //and invoke() will call WriteLine method by passing the string "Hello World"             //this line equivalent to Console.WriteLine("Hello World");             typeof(Console).GetMethod("WriteLine", new Type[] { typeof(string) }).Invoke(default, new object[] { "Hello World" });             Console.ReadLine();         }     } }

In this example i am using Prism,unity and MahApps make sure you are also using same otherwise you will not get PrismApplication,BindableBase and MetroWindow .   MainWindow.xaml  <metro:MetroWindow x:Class="WpfApplication.Views.MainWindow"              xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"              xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"              xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"              xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"              xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication"              mc:Ignorable="d"              xmlns:metro="http://metro.mahapps.com/winfx/xaml/controls"              xmlns:i="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Interactivity;assembly=System.Windows.Interactivity"              Title="Welcome To Metro ui with Prism Unity">      <
