    Thanks for your Video. Better than to read so much about AutoCompleteBox ;-)

    I am experiencing big lag between audio and video. I see video of the the previous sample when you are explaining the next sample. Is anyone else experiencing the same?

    Never mind! It worked now.
    Thanks for the great video!

    Rather than binding each column of the datagrid (SelectionAdapter) in XAML in your example, I need to set the Itemsource in code. Is there an easy way to do that?

    cool video. can’t wait to see more.

    thanks

    Do we have UI Automation support for AutoCompleteBox? I used AutomationProperties.AutomationId=”AutoCompleteBox_ID1″ but its not detected by UISpy.
    If Yes please provide me the steps.

    @Manish,
    UI automation was added for the December release and will be available when that goes public in the coming weeks.
