how can I access the Name field of item?

XAML:

    <ListView ItemsSource="{Binding ShortcutItems}" x:Name="ItemsOnGrid" View="{StaticResource ImageDetailView}" SelectionMode="Multiple">

    </ListView>

C#

        foreach (var item in ItemsOnGrid.SelectedItems)
        {
            string sourceFile = path + @"\" + item;
            string destFile = @"H:\Desktop";
            if (Directory.Exists(@"H:\Desktop"))
            {
                File.Copy(sourceFile, destFile, true);
            }
        }

Although I have items selected in my ListView, when I enter the foreach loop, I can't figure out how to get the Name field of item

Make sure you cast the item variable to the type of element you are providing as ItemsSource. It looks that that should be something like ShortcutItem? By WPF design, there is no way to strongly type the ItemsSource property.

foreach (ShortcutItem item in ItemsOnGrid.SelectedItems) {
     string name = item.Name;
}
