`TelerikControls` has a bug and sometimes the `GridView` displays  empty `ComboBoxCells`. In order to fix this I followed their steps here http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radgridview/troubleshooting/blank-cells.html and I have to point the `ItemsSource` to a static resource. 

That method works perfectly if the resource never changes, but mine can change depending on a `ComboBoxSelection` within the `DataGrid`. I'm wondering how do I update my `StaticResource` collection in the UI.

I've tried this method http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4438876/wpf-refresh-staticresource but it never changed the collection in the UI. 

**RelationshipEditor.xaml.cs**

private void OnSelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    var radcomboBox = e.OriginalSource as RadComboBox;
    if (radcomboBox != null)
    {
        RadComboBox comboBox = (RadComboBox)e.OriginalSource;
        (FindResource("MyChannelDataProvider") as ObjectDataProvider).Refresh();
    }
}`


**RelationshipEditor.xaml**

<ObjectDataProvider x:Key="MyChannelDataProvider" ObjectType="{x:Type Loans:LoanViewModel}">
 </ObjectDataProvider>
 
<Telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn Header="Relationship"
                                ItemsSource="{Binding SelectedRelationship.GridRelationshipTypes, Source={StaticResource MyChannelDataProvider}}" 
                                DataMemberBinding="{Binding RelationshipType}"
                                SelectedValueMemberPath="Id"
                                DisplayMemberPath="Name">
</Telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn>


I've set break points for `GridRelationshipTypes` and I can see it is getting the correct collection. If I remove static resource, the code works perfectly but it may still exhibit the telerik bug.
