I am a little confused still by what you are asking. Can you do me a favor and take a screenshot of what the DataGrid looks like and pointout where the textblock and combobox you are working with are located? It might help me better understand what you are trying to do

Hi,

Have you tried using DataGridRow instead of using DataGrid ?
Because I think what you need is for the particular DataGridRow, so if you would get the particular DataGridRow then it would be easy to find the element (TextBlock in your case) in that cell and changing its value...
May be you can try using and editing the following code :-

DependencyObject depObj = (DependencyObject)(e.OriginalSource);
                    if (depObj != null)
                    {
                        for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(depObj); i++)
                        {
                            var child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(depObj, i);
                            while ((child != null) && !(child is DataGridRow))
                            {
                                child = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(child);
                            }

                            if (child is DataGridRow)
                            {
                                DataGridRow a = (DataGridRow)child;

                                // Your functionality but not this exactly
                                // TextBlock.Text= ComboBox.SelectedItem;
                            }
                        }
                    }

Hope that may help you :)
