Step 2) Add  Xml file to Project . name it as salesorder.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<HeaderLines>

Step 3)  Add datagrid to XAML

        <DataGrid x:Name="datagrid4" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="218" Width="275" Margin="10,53,0,0"/>
        <Label Content=" Datagrid Binding in WPF using LINQ to XML" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="48" Width="290" Foreground="Aquamarine" FontSize="20"/>
 
Step 4)   LINQ TO XML in WPF

        public XMLDemo()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            LoadXml();
        }


        void LoadXml()
        {
            try
            {
                XDocument doc = XDocument.Load("SalesOrder.xml");
                if (doc == null) MessageBox.Show("doc is null");
                var query = from ele in doc.Descendants("Item")
                            select new
                            {
                                ProductName = ele.Element("ProductName").Value,
                                Quanity = ele.Element("Quantity").Value,
                                UnitPrice = ele.Element("UnitPrice").Value,
                                Total = Convert.ToInt32(ele.Element("Quantity").Value) *
                                        Convert.ToDouble(ele.Element("UnitPrice").Value)
                            };
                datagrid4.ItemsSource = query.ToList();//Binding linq to xml list to datagrid
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
                MessageBox.Show(ex.InnerException.Message);
            }

        }
Step 5) Run the Applictaion
