Combining CheckBoxColumn and TextColumn into one column

Question

Is it possible to combine a DataGridTextColumn and DataGridCheckBoxColumn into one column?

I have this class where I combine two columns values into one result:

public class ViewQuoteItemList
{
    public string Supplier { get; set; }
    public bool TrueFalse { get; set; }

    public string CheckBoxColumn
    {
        get { return string.Format("{0} {1}", Supplier, TrueFalse); }
    }
}

Then I bind one of the columns like this:

DataGridTextColumn columnFeedbackSupplier = new DataGridTextColumn();
columnFeedbackSupplier.Binding = new Binding("CheckBoxColumn");

I do not know how to bind/join a DataGridCheckBoxColumn with a DataGridTextColumn to display both the text and a checkbox in one column

Yes I have but I could not find any information on how I could combine both types into one column — CareTaker22, Feb 02 '16 at 11:03
you could define a CellTemplate for the same using DataGridTemplateColumn — Abhinav Sharma, Feb 02 '16 at 11:03
Also, how can I then bind that `DataGridTemplateColumn` in code behind? I know it's a bit more difficult than a normal TextColumn — CareTaker22, Feb 02 '16 at 11:07

DataGridTemplateColumn you can define Template for the same.

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="ViewQuote">
    <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Supplier}"/>
                <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding TrueFalse}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>

Great stuff! Thank you very much Abhinav! Also is there a way to bind a Tempelate column the same as you did in XAML, but do it in C# code? – CareTaker22 Feb 02 '16 at 11:11
