  Before I give up and start from scratch, probably from a XML data island which seems simplier (see here:  http://www.longhorncorner.com/UploadFile/cook451/DataBindingXAML12102005134820PM/DataBindingXAML.aspx ) is there anyway I can change a few parameters in the code below and make it work?  It compiles but the Listbox does not show anything.
  
  I've tried dozens of variations, some of which do not compile

  //  appears in App.xaml

   <Application.Resources>
          
          <XmlDataProvider x:Key="LearnWPFeed" Source="Products3.xml" XPath="/Products3/Product3" />

      </Application.Resources>

  
  //  appears in window (a grid having four rows and two columns, with the listbox in the last row and first column): 

   

  <Grid x:Name="myGrid30" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="0" Margin="1" DataContext="{StaticResource LearnWPFeed}" >
            
                  <StackPanel>
                      
                      <ListBox x:Name="lstBox30" Margin="4" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"  >
                          <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"  >
                              <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold">Name</TextBlock>
                               <TextBox HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Text="{Binding XPath=@ModelName}" ></TextBox>
                              <TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@ProductImagePath}" ></TextBlock>
                          </StackPanel>
                          </ListBox>
                  </StackPanel>
              </Grid>

  // appears in Solution Explorer as a Resource
