    <p>I have a WPF Menu and a Tab control. I would like the list of menu items to be generated from the collection of TabItems on my tab control. I am binding my tab control to a collection to generate the TabItems. I have a TabItem style that uses a ContentPresenter to display the TabItem text in a TextBlock. When I bind the tab items to my menu the menu items are blank. I am using a Style Setter to set the Menu Item name, but I am not sure what property of the TabItem I would use to set the MenuItem text. Is there a workaround for my scenario? Is it possible to bind to the Header property of the tab item, when I do not know the number of tabs in advance? Below is a copy of my xaml declarations. Tab Control and items:</p> <pre><code>&lt;DataTemplate x:Key="ClosableTabItemTemplate"&gt; &lt;DockPanel HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"&gt; &lt;Button Command="{Binding Path=CloseWorkSpaceCommand}" Content="X" Cursor="Hand" DockPanel.Dock="Right" Focusable="False" FontFamily="Courier" FontSize="9" FontWeight="Bold" Margin="10,1,0,0" Padding="0" VerticalContentAlignment="Bottom" Width="16" Height="16" Background="Red" /&gt; &lt;ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="Center" Content="{Binding Path=DisplayName}"&gt; &lt;ContentPresenter.Resources&gt; &lt;Style TargetType="{x:Type TextBlock}"/&gt; &lt;/ContentPresenter.Resources&gt; &lt;/ContentPresenter&gt; &lt;/DockPanel&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate x:Key="WorkspacesTemplate"&gt; &lt;TabControl IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True" ItemsSource="{Binding}" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ClosableTabItemTemplate}" Margin="10" Background="#4C4C4C"/&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; </code></pre> <p>My Menu and partial style listing</p> <p>//I am not sure which value am I suppose to use, since I am not using header </p> <pre><code>&lt;Menu Background="Transparent"&gt; &lt;MenuItem Style="{StaticResource TabMenuButtonStyle}" ItemsSource="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type TabControl}}, Path=Items}" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource TabMenuItem}"&gt; &lt;/MenuItem&gt; &lt;/Menu&gt; </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.
