How to Access a Button present inside a Custom Control, from the implementing page?

Question

I have my generic.xaml containing the following code:

Answer 1

I have a feeling, that you're trying to mimic EventSetter behaviour. If I'm right, please just take a look on this simple example:

This code assigns your custom event to some text block's regular action directly from XAML (you don't have to pollute your code behind with accessing controls' properties).

I hope this is helpful, but if not, please give me a shout.

Edit:

Sorry for not being perfectly clear (this was just a quickly pasted code snippet). Please have a look on a complete example:

Styles for your next/previous buttons:

Code behind:

 public event EventHandler MovedPrevious;
 public event EventHandler MovedNext;

     protected void OnMovedPrevious(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
     {
       if (MovedPrevious != null)
       {
          MovedPrevious(this, e);   
       }
     }

     protected void OnMovedNext(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
     {
        if (MovedNext != null)
        {
           MovedNext(this, e);   
        }
     }

Since now on you can access OnMovedNext and OnMovedPrevious directly from your control's handling conrol/whatever just as Anthony posted.

Sorry if my previous answer was confusing, but it supposed to be just an inspiration what to do :)

Edit:

I haven't noticed that this regards only Silverlight for which I apologize :) But, it works perfectly for WPF if you wish to try.
