DataGrid the method DataSource not found

I am trying to build a DataGrid - Not a DataGridView as it does not seem to be available on Visual Studio 2010.

I want to add rows dynamically (I think I can do that) but in order to display the result I need assign the data to the DataGrid, all the examples say I should use DataSource but Visual Studio insists that this is not available. To code I have found else where is like this. 

private void BindToDataView(System.Windows.Controls.DataGrid myGrid)
{
    // Create a DataView using the DataTable.
    DataTable myTable = new DataTable("Suppliers");
    // Insert code to create and populate columns.
    DataView myDataView = new DataView(myTable);
    myGrid.DataSource = myDataView;
}

What am I doing wrong?

You pass in a WPF DataGrid (System.Windows.Controls.DataGrid) and use code meant for a WinForms DataGrid (System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid).

WPF DataGrids use ItemsSource.
WinForms DataGrids use DataSource.
