     <data:DataGrid.Columns>
             <data:DataGridTextColumnBinding="{Binding Steps}" Header="Steps"/>
                <data:DataGridTemplateColumn x:Name="ContentColm" Header="Expression" IsReadOnly="True">
                                		<data:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
   <DataTemplate>
      <RichTextBox x:Name="ContentText" MinWidth="610" 		BorderThickness="1" KeyDown="TextBox_KeyDown" Margin="1">
      <Paragraph>
            <Run Text="{Binding Path=RuleCondition, Mode=TwoWay}" />
       </Paragraph>
       </RichTextBox>
                                           
       </DataTemplate>
                                		</data:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
</data:DataGridTemplateColumn>

Why don't you just use binding to get the appropriate values from the richtextbox instead of using the keydown event.
This would be the correct way to proceed.

I used binding itself. Keydown event for different purpose. How do I insert text say some multiple times at different cursor positions and in different rows?
