ItemTemplate for an empty collection

12-29-2007

Is there a way to define a template for ListBox to appear when ItemsSource
is set to an empty collection? E.g. I want to show "No entries" text if the
result of a DB query is empty set.

Thanks,
-O.

Yes, you can use a Style with a DataTrigger observing the collection you
set to the ItemsSource, and setting the "Template" property to something
else if the Count is 0.
