    <p>This is how I am doing it with MVVM. On my model I would have defined my enum:</p> <pre><code> public enum VelocityUnitOfMeasure { [Description("Miles per Hour")] MilesPerHour, [Description("Kilometers per Hour")] KilometersPerHour } </code></pre> <p>On my ViewModel I expose a property that provides possible selections as string as well as a property to get/set the model's value. This is useful if we don't want to use every enum value in the type:</p> <pre><code> //UI Helper public IEnumerable&lt;string&gt; VelocityUnitOfMeasureSelections { get { var units = new [] { VelocityUnitOfMeasure.MilesPerHour.Description(), VelocityUnitOfMeasure.KilometersPerHour.Description() }; return units; } } //VM property public VelocityUnitOfMeasure UnitOfMeasure { get { return model.UnitOfMeasure; } set { model.UnitOfMeasure = value; } } </code></pre> <p>Furthermore, I use a generic EnumDescriptionCoverter:</p> <pre><code>public class EnumDescriptionConverter : IValueConverter { //From Binding Source public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture) { if (!(value is Enum)) throw new ArgumentException("Value is not an Enum"); return (value as Enum).Description(); } //From Binding Target public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture) { if (!(value is string)) throw new ArgumentException("Value is not a string"); foreach(var item in Enum.GetValues(targetType)) { var asString = (item as Enum).Description(); if (asString == (string) value) { return item; } } throw new ArgumentException("Unable to match string to Enum description"); } } </code></pre> <p>And finally, with the view I can do the following:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Window.Resources&gt; &lt;ValueConverters:EnumDescriptionConverter x:Key="enumDescriptionConverter" /&gt; &lt;/Window.Resources&gt; ... &lt;ComboBox SelectedItem="{Binding UnitOfMeasure, Converter={StaticResource enumDescriptionConverter}}" ItemsSource="{Binding VelocityUnitOfMeasureSelections, Mode=OneWay}" /&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COis Enum.Description() and extension method? I cannot find that method on type System.Enum ..

    2. CO.Description() is an extension method that gets the description attribute. In hind sight, it might have been more fitting to use the DisplayName attribute.

    3. COI overlooked the extension method in the question body, that was probably what you were referring to, and DisplayName is not used because it does not apply to enum field targets (unless you expand attribute usage)

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.
