Silverlight DataGrid.Celltemplate Binding to ViewModel

I am in the process of implimenting the MVVC pattern and am having trouble binding a property in the viewmodel from within a DataTemplate within a datagrid. If I have a textblock outside the DataTemplate in the column it works fine (since I am directly referencing the datacontext of the UserConrol, ie the VM) however from within the DataTemplate it wont return the plain text property. It will however return a property from the iterated IEnumerable item.

<UserControl xmlns:data="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Data"  
    x:Class="Timesheet.Silverlight.Modules.Views.HistoryView"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"     
    xmlns:Commands="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Practices.Composite.Presentation.Commands;assembly=Microsoft.Practices.Composite.Presentation" 
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" 
    xmlns:ViewModels="clr-namespace:Timesheet.Silverlight.Modules.ViewModels" 
   x:Name="View">
    <StackPanel>            
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DataContext.testText, ElementName=View}" />    
            <data:DataGrid  Height="280" Width="500" ItemsSource="{Binding TimeSlots}" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >                        
            <data:DataGrid.Columns>
                <data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Allocation Area" Binding="{Binding TimeAllocationArea.TimeAllocationName}" Width="200" />
                <data:DataGridTextColumn Header="Start" Binding="{Binding StartTime}" Width="80" />
                <data:DataGridTextColumn Header="End" Binding="{Binding Path=DataContext.testText, ElementName=View}" Width="80" />
                <data:DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Modify" Width="200" >
                    <data:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DataContext.testText, ElementName=View}" />
                            </StackPanel>
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </data:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
                </data:DataGridTemplateColumn>
            </data:DataGrid.Columns>
        </data:DataGrid>    
    </StackPanel>
</UserControl>

Is there some sort of problem with the DataTemplate that im ignoring?? Note the "{Binding Path=DataContext.testText, ElementName=View}" works for all elements except the one in the DataTemplate. (Note I know that the 1st Textblock outside the DG doesnt need the ElementName etc but i have just done it this way to prove to myself that its referencing the right thing)


I don't know if this applies to SL, but you can check this out:

"The Columns collection is just a property in the Datagrid; this collection is not in the logical (or visual) tree, therefore the DataContext is not being inherited, which leads to there being nothing to bind to."

You can still data bind to static resources inside your DataTemplates even when element-to-element data binding doesn't work. One method for views to reference the view model in the MVVM pattern is storing the view model in a static resource, such as the ViewModelLocator used by the MVVM Light Toolkit.

Assuming your view model is named TestViewModel, I can modify your example XAML to use a ViewModelLocator and end up with this.

                                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Source={StaticResource Locator}, Path=TestViewModel.testText}" />
                            </StackPanel>
