ItemStringFormat can be a predefined, composite, or custom string format. For more information about string formats, see Formatting Types. If you set the ItemTemplate or ItemTemplateSelector of a ItemsControl, the ItemStringFormat property is ignored.
The following example uses the ItemStringFormat to specify the format of a list of DateTime objects.
<ListBox xmlns:sys="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib" ItemStringFormat="MMMM d, yyyy"> <sys:DateTime>2004/3/4</sys:DateTime> <sys:DateTime>2004/8/9</sys:DateTime> <sys:DateTime>2005/10/14</sys:DateTime> <sys:DateTime>2005/4/8</sys:DateTime> </ListBox> <!--The results when the default culture is en-US: March 4, 2004 August 9, 2004 October 14, 2005, April 8, 2005-->
