I've got a Datagrid with a column defined as this:
<Custom:DataGridTextColumn HeaderStyle="{StaticResource ComboBoxHeader}" Width="Auto" Header="Type" Binding="{Binding Path=Type}" IsReadOnly="True" />
The ComboBoxHeader style is defined in a resource dictionary as this:
<Style x:Key="ComboBoxHeader" TargetType="{x:Type my:DataGridColumnHeader}">
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>

As you can see, I'm trying to databind the combobox's ItemsSource to Types, but this doesn't work. The list is in my ViewModel that is being applied to my page, how would I specify in this style that is in my resource dictionary that I want to bind to a source in my viewmodel.
