WPF: Context-menu for Row and Header of DataGrid

[Prasoon Chaudhary]

I've a dataGrid in my XAML file. I need to display two separate context-menus on right-click on Rows and Header. Having same context-menu on both is easy, but how to have different ones? Will someone please provide a bit of code?

I think, I've got the answer.

<!--ContextMenu Definition-->
<ContextMenu x:Key="cm_rowMenu">
<!--ContextMenu For Row-->
</ContextMenu>

	<ContextMenu  x:Key="cm\_columnHeaderMenu">
		 <!--ContextMenu For Header-->
	</ContextMenu>

<!--ContextMenu Definition Ends-->

<!--Default Header Style-->
<Style x:Key="DefaultColumnHeaderStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Custom:DataGridColumnHeader}">
<Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm_columnHeaderMenu}" />
</Style>

<!--Default Row Style-->
<Style x:Key="DefaultRowStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Custom:DataGridRow}">
<Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource cm_rowMenu}" />
</Style>

<!--Setting styles for DataGrid-->
<Custom:DataGrid
RowStyle="{StaticResource DefaultRowStyle}"
ColumnHeaderStyle="{StaticResource DefaultColumnHeaderStyle}"/>

Yup - that looks like it should do it.
