WPF datagrid combobox with list of objects

I have a List of Objects



class myObject 
{
string Name
string ID
}


Now I want to bind the list into the datagrid combobox, with the name of the objects visible. Currently I solve this with overriding the function ToString() { return Name; }.



Any other ideas?



Best regards,
Martin

    It is unclear what you are asking. If you solved this with overriding, why are you looking for another way then?

Set the DisplayMemberPath of the ComboBox or the DataGridComboBoxColumn to "Name" and make sure that Name is a public property of the myObject class:



public string Name { get; set; }
