Hi Guysm
i have 2 different viewModels and i want to display them in a single WPF windows any ideas if that is posible as all my code for one Viewmodel is displayed Xaml and this line of code behind for main window 
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public EscortViewModel eViewModel { private set; get; }
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
eViewModel = new EscortViewModel();
eViewModel.LoadCustomer();
DataContext = eViewModel;
  
}
}
