data binding - Silverlight Parent Usercontrol Resources access -

a simple question

it's possibile usercontrol, view (directly in xaml) parent resources?

for example e usercontrol contains

<usercontrol.resources>     <viewmodel:exampleresource x:key="exampleresourcex1"></viewmodel:exampleresourcex> </usercontrol.resources> 

and usercontrol inside him, need reference , bind exampleresourcex1 staticresource

it's possible?

thanks

it possible?

static resources can defined @ level , visible below level using static resource binding.

we put our converters app.xaml instead of in pages can seen app-wide.
