    #region ICancelFlightView Members

    public CancelFlightViewModel ViewModel
    {
        get
        {
            return DataContext as CancelFlightViewModel;
        }
        set
        {
            DataContext = value;
        }
    }

    #endregion
}

Now, when user click CheckBox, I can set focus on CustCombBox, but I can't set focus on Whose checkBox.IsChecked.Value = true when page is opened for the first time.

is it possible on MVVM pattern? Looking forward your reply, thanks very much.

I fixed it by myself, using timer solved this issue.

private void UserControl_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { if (DataContext != null) { CancelFlightViewModel viewModel = (CancelFlightViewModel)DataContext;

            myDispatcherTimer.Interval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 0, 500); // 500 Milliseconds 
            myDispatcherTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(Each_Tick);
            myDispatcherTimer.Start();
        }
    }

    private void Each_Tick(object o, EventArgs sender)
    {
        if (dg.CurrentColumn != null && dg.ItemsSource != null && this.ViewModel.FlightLegs != null && this.ViewModel.FlightLegs.Count != 0)
        {
            IEnumerable<FlightLeg> items = (IEnumerable<FlightLeg>)dg.ItemsSource;
            FlightLeg[] legs = items.ToArray<FlightLeg>();
            if (legs.Length != 0)
            {
                dg.CurrentColumn = dg.Columns[3];
                for (int i = 0; i < legs.Length; i++)
                {
                    if (legs[i].Selected)
                    {
                        dg.SelectedIndex = i;
                        dg.SelectedItem = legs[i];
                        FrameworkElement obj = (FrameworkElement)dg.Columns[3].GetCellContent(dg.SelectedItem);
                        System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Plugin.Focus();
                        DataGridCell cellEdit = (DataGridCell)obj.Parent;
                        cellEdit.Focus();
                        dg.BeginEdit();
                        break;
                    }
                }

                myDispatcherTimer.Stop();
            }
        }
    }

anyway, it is DataGrid, DataGrid does not support creating row, if it is other controls, you can use this way: http://blogger.forgottenskies.com/?p=329 http://consultingblogs.emc.com/davidwynne/archive/2008/12/15/silverlight-and-the-view-viewmodel-pattern.aspx
