HI,

I have combo box control with button control inside(red button on the left side). When I click the button I want to open appropriate window to edit selected item. If I can find selected item in current control then I can easy open appropriate window. I have few combo boxes with different type of data and different window to open if button is clicked. My problem is to find selected item.

Here is how combo box look like http://picasaweb.google.com/118216385786728058155/Public#5495556955853206546

It is WPF application. The button is part of the combo box. I want to find way to get selected item from that combo box. I create Button_Click event handler. In this event handler I want to get selected item and because every item has OpenWindow() function I can easy open appropriate window. Maybe the solution is to find button parent object because the button is part of the combo box and then get selected item, I don't now.
Button is defined in ControlTemplate of the combo box.
Thanks for reply.
