Silverlight
Hello,
I have a Silverlight application that is using a DataGrid. Inside of that DataGrid I have a DataTemplate that is defined like the following:
<Grid x:Name="myGrid" Tag="{Binding}" Loaded="myGrid_Loaded">
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding MyItems}" Tag="{Binding}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="138">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Type}" />
<TextBox x:Name="myTextBox" TextChanged="myTextBox_TextChanged" />
</StackPanel>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</Grid>
When a user enters text into the TextBox, I have an event (myTextBox_TextChanged) that must be fired at this point. When that event gets fired, I would like to get the ItemsControl element that is the container for this TextBox. How do I get that ItemsControl from my event handler?
Please note: Because the ItemsControl is in the DataTemplate of DataGrid, I don't believe I can just add an x:Name and reference it from my code-behind. Or is there a way to do that?
Thank you!
