XML in Action

Question

I am trying to figure out how to use the Xmldataprovider to be able to use information from a xml to two-way bind the information into a listbox that, when a company name is selected, its information will be displayed in textboxes (ex company name, phone contact ect.) I need to be able to have the ability to update the data in those textboxes which will then be saved. I have the xaml code finished, which is as follows:

<Window x:Class="FinalProject.MainWindow"

xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

<Canvas>
<Label Canvas.Left="100" Canvas.Top="93">Select Customer:</Label>
<TextBlock FontSize="30" Margin="20" Background="Blue" Foreground="White" Padding="10,0" Canvas.Left="301" Canvas.Top="-8">

<ListBox HorizontalAlignment="Right" Canvas.Left="364" Canvas.Top="79" Height="83" Width="343">

<TextBox Canvas.Left="136" Canvas.Top="47" Width="427" />
<TextBox Canvas.Left="136" Canvas.Top="84" Width="427" />
