Applying same interaction trigger to multiple TextBoxes

I have multiple textboxes bound to different data, but I would like every one to launch the same command when the TextChanged event is fired. I could copy the interaction line under every textbox but I'm guessing there must be a way to use a template or style to get this working on all of them.

Here is the code for the first textbox

<TextBox Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="3" Height="28" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="0,12,12,0" Name="TextBox_Description" VerticalAlignment="Top" TabIndex="3" Text="{Binding Item.Description, ValidatesOnDataErrors=True, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
        <i:Interaction.Triggers开发者_JS百科>
            <i:EventTrigger EventName="TextChanged">
                <i:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding DataChangedCommand}"/>
            </i:EventTrigger>
        </i:Interaction.Triggers>
    </TextBox>

If your UpdateMode is always going to be PropertyChanged then there really isn't any reason not to listen to your own PropertyChangedEvent in your ViewModel. It will definitely improve testability.

    private void OnPropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs args)
    {
        switch (args.PropertyName)
        {
            case "Prop1":
            case "Prop2":
                .
                .
                .
                DataChangedCommand.Execute(null);
                break;
        }
    }

I'm not positive how to do it with Interaction.Triggers, but in the past I've used the AttachedCommand dependency properties found here and simply used a Style

Normal XAML

<TextBox local:CommandBehavior.Event="TextChanged" 
         local:CommandBehavior.Command="{Binding DataChangedCommand}"/>

Using a Style

<Style TargetType="TextBox">
    <Setter Property="local:CommandBehavior.Event" Value="TextChanged" />
    <Setter Property="local:CommandBehavior.Command" Value="{Binding DataChangedCommand}" />
</Style>
