    Setting DataContext for DataTemplate

    Hi All,

    Perhaps its because its been a long week, but I just can't seem to figure
    out how to bind data in a DataTemplate using DataContext.

    The following is in the XAML code:
    <Button x:Name="btnRegu larDataContext" Margin="5">
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding} " />
    </Button>

    <Button x:Name="btnInDa taTemplate" Margin="5">
    <Button.Content Template>
    <DataTemplate >
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding} " />
    </DataTemplate>
    </Button.ContentT emplate>
    </Button>

    And in the code-behind:
    btnRegulareData Context.DataCon text = DateTime.Now.To ShortString();
    btnInDataTempla te.DataContext = DateTime.Now.To ShortString();

    The first button shows the time, the second does not. What am I missing?!?

    Thanks....
Working...
