Hello,

you can try this:

txtblkSelectedItem.Text = ((((sender as ListBox).SelectedValue as ListBoxItem).Content as StackPanel).Children[1] as TextBlock).Text;

It should show your desired output. But you should consider DataBinding/Templates and create objects for your items. Then you can directly access the properties.

this work perfect .. thanks

but i keep wonder why WPF Code is more Difficult than Windows form code ?!

I guess that's a point of view. WPF and Forms are different. And what you are used to is always easier ;)
Both kind of code have their advantages.
