So does the List-based method you suggested work for binding to WPF UI controls, and will it lend to updateing the SQL tables using the Linq-to-Sql SubmitChanges method?

My plan is to create a detail edit form with VCR Buttons and a bunch of TextBoxes nested in a ContentControl to display the data from the table. Then, when the user finds the desired record, and edits the data in the TextBoxes, I will have a Save Button to commit the changes to the SQL table, via the Linq-to-Sql features.

So far, my Linq queries have pulled IEnumerable collections that I have displayed in a ListView, so the List collection is new to me.

>>>I pull a list of Jobs from a table using a Linq statement, and I want to build a UI form in WPF to show the records one at a time with a VCR-type control to navigate forward and backward through the Linq data set. How do I implement the equivalent of VFP's Skip behavior to navigate through the records one-at-a-time?

>>>In my VFP (Visual Foxpro) app, I open a table and use a VCR control in my UI form to "Skip 1" and go to the next record to present the data fields in a detail form and allow the the user viewing or editing capabilites. It is a simple and common UI design that I have not been able to find samples of for WPF.
