You could use the String.Split Method in order to split a string.

Reference: C# Split A String By Another String

You don't have need to split the string and also no need to use three textblocks, You can use RichTextBox control to show the information. It will show your full content of description

use the bellow code with scrollbar in .xaml page

          <ScrollViewer 
              VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" 
              ManipulationMode="Control" 
              Height="400" 
              Margin="0,0,0,-13" >
                <RichTextBox TextAlignment="Justify"
                             IsReadOnly="True"
                             Margin="0,0,0,10">
                    <Paragraph Foreground="#626262"
                               FontSize="17"
                               FontStyle="Normal"
                               FontFamily="Regular"  >
                        <Run x:Name="txtDescription" />
                    </Paragraph>
                </RichTextBox>
        </ScrollViewer>

and set the value of description to txtDescription in .xaml.cs file

        txtDescription.Text = xElememt.Element("description").Value;

Your Answer is correct.but if i increase font size that text is getting cut. — rohini, Jan 21 '15 at 07:06
