Hello Michael,  

I have been looking into this and the XamGrid’s ActiveItem property is made to work only for the first level of hierarchy, which in many cases would be useful, however for the XamDataTree there are seldom such occasions and no such property is created, hence you can use the ActiveNode property and if you require access to the data you can use e.g. :  xamDataTree1.ActiveNode.Data
