WPF reference object from XAML

Question

Here is one that bothers me!

I found on stackoverflow this Accessing XAML object in codebehind(WPF) about accessing a resource.

But what if i want reference to a textbox, for example, in my code-behind file? I didn't find that around.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Give it an x:Name and then in your code-behind just reference it as this.TheName.

See XAML Named Elements on MSDN.
