Vista - Simple databinding question...

In this snippet:

<CheckBox x:Name="chk1">One</CheckBox>
<CheckBox x:Name="chk2" IsChecked="{Binding ElementName=chk1,
Path=IsChecked, Mode=OneWay}">Two</CheckBox>


I expect chk1 to drive chk2, this is true until i manually change status of
chk2, after that chk2 is no longed bound to chk1, is there any reason for
this?

When the binding is one way, if you manually set the property on the target
the binding will be discarded.
The solution: use two-way binding or cache the binding before setting the
value.
