Given a populated ListView, how do I iterate through each bound template and pluck out the contained ComboBox (or any other control contained in DataTemplate)?

<ListView x:Name="lstCommands">
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <Grid x:Name="gridInputs">
            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="100"/>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <Label Content="{Binding Path=Key}"/>
            <ComboBox x:Name="cbInputCmd" Grid.Column="1" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource inputData}}" Tag="{Binding Path=Key}"/>
        </Grid>
    </DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>

    Firstly, avoid doing so unless you really need to. If you absolutely must, you can use DataTemplate.FindName, where the templated parent is the ListViewItem generated by the ListView. To get the ListViewItem, use the ListView‘s ItemContainerGenerator.

    Update: the reason I suggest avoiding this approach wherever possible is because it creates more tightly-coupled, brittle code. The OP didn’t mention why he wanted to do what he was asking, but I suspect he could achieve his goal by more idiomatic means, such as with bindings.
