Body
I realize I'm a little late to the party but I found a (I think) rather clean solution to this problem. A clever converter that remembers the last string converted to double and returns that if it exists should do everything you want. Note that when the user changes the contents of the textbox, ConvertBack will store the string the user input, parse the string for a double, and pass that value to the view model. Immediately after, Convert is called to display the newly changed value. At this point, the stored string is not null and will be returned. If the application instead of the user causes the double to change only Convert is called. This means that the cached string will be null and a standard ToString() will be called on the double. In this way, the user avoids strange surprises when modifying the contents of the textbox but the application can still trigger a change. <pre><code>public class DoubleToPersistantStringConverter : IValueConverter { private string lastConvertBackString; public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) { if (!(value is double)) return null; var stringValue = lastConvertBackString ?? value.ToString(); lastConvertBackString = null; return stringValue; } public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) { if (!(value is string)) return null; double result; if (double.TryParse((string)value, out result)) { lastConvertBackString = (string)value; return result; } return null; } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
