Access button in ListBoxItem in Silverlight

Hey everyone. I'm new to Silverlight and would like to access a button control that is part of a ListBoxItem. However, I'm not quite sure how to do this. My XAML is:

<DataTemplate x:Key="ItemTemplate2">
            <Grid Height="51">
                <TextBlock x:Name="tbName" Text="{Binding Property1}" Margin="0,0,98,0" d:LayoutOverrides="Height" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
                <Button x:Name="btnInfo"  HorizontalAlignment="Right" Margin="0,-11,0,0" Width="87" Height="54" VerticalAlignment="Top" Background="#FF8EC1D2" BorderBrush="#FF8EC1D2" BorderThickness="0">
                    <Image Source="../Images/btnNameImage.png" Stretch="None"/>                 
                </Button>
            </Grid>
        </DataTemplate>

How can I access the "btnInfo" from the code-behind?

Thanks for any help

This doesn't directly answer your question of programatically accessing a data template, but how about Binding?

you wont be able to access it directly from code behind, but you should be able to do what you want by registering an event with it. Add a Loaded event to the button then in your codebehind define the corresponding method.

protected btninfo_Loaded(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Button btnInfo = (Button) sender;
    //do whatever you need to do
}

obviously you can do the same thing to handle click events or whatever you want.
