<Grid MaxHeight="800">

   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="testGrid"

                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_Data}}"

The following example demonstrates how to copy rows selected in a datagrid control to the clipboard using code behind.

VB.NET	Copy Code
' Where testGrid is the DataGridControl. This sends the RoutedCommand Copy ' to the DataGridControl so that the control can handle it. ApplicationCommands.Copy.Execute(Nothing, Me.testGrid)

C#	Copy Code
// Where testGrid is the DataGridControl. This sends the RoutedCommand Copy // to the DataGridControl so that the control can handle it. ApplicationCommands.Copy.Execute( null, this.testGrid );
