How do you show Combo Box in ListView when bound?
I am displaying many rows of data in a list view that is bound to a list of a custom class. A custom class has a property called a type. The number of types allowed is limited and I would like to restrict the user to make changes by choosing from a combobox. I tried to add the combobox to the base class, but it didn't show up as a list as a list.

Found this online and seemed like a good starting point to get started with DataTemplates.
