Answer 1

This code

is trying to bind against the Property CellNo of the UserControl. Add RelativeSource or ElementName and it'll work.

You may also need to set the the DataContext of control to itself

public control()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    this.DataContext = this;
    //...
}

Update

You can download a sample application of this here.

Otherwise, here's my full sample code.

MainWindow.xaml

Mainwindow.xaml.cs

public partial class MainWindow : Window, INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        this.DataContext = this;
        CellNo = "Hello";
    }
    private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        CellNo = "Hi";
    }
    private string m_cellNo;
    public string CellNo
    {
        get
        {
            return m_cellNo;
        }
        set
        {
            m_cellNo = value;
            OnPropertyChanged("CellNo");
        }
    }
    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
    private void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)
    {
        if (PropertyChanged != null)
        {
            PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
        }
    }
}

control.xaml

control.xaml.cs

public partial class control : UserControl
{
    public string CellValue
    {
        get { return (string)GetValue(CellValueProperty); }
        set { SetValue(CellValueProperty, value); }
    }
    // Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for LimitValue.  This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...    
    public static readonly DependencyProperty CellValueProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("CellValue", typeof(string), typeof(control), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata
        {
            BindsTwoWayByDefault = true,
        });
    public control()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        this.DataContext = this;
        CellValue = "Test";
    }
}
