datafilter bind with custom property

[mehmood ahmed]

Hi..

If i want to bind through code behind  and want to bind non predefined dependecy property instead i want to create my own dependency property then will that work.

for example;

This example to bind Source property of DataPager:

<sdk:RadDataFilter x:Name="radFilter" Source="{Binding Items, ElementName=datagridQuotationQueue}" /> 
radFilter.SetBinding(RadDataFilter.SourceProperty, new Binding("Items") { Source = datagridQuotationQueue })

Suppose i have my own customed collection

public ObservableCollection<string> Names{set;get;} 

and i want to give it instead of Items

How can i achieve it by making it dependency propoerty (Names)?
