Add Mode=FindAncestor to the RelativeSource Binding :)

{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type NavigationWindow}}, Path=BackStack}

Hi, Thank you for the reply. Error has gone but it is not working. Do you have any idea on this?

BackStack is a list, and NavigateUri expects a Uri :) I don't think Hyperlink will be the answer you are seeking.. Check out Buttons and events. Also, check out this link: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/…
