Hi Scott,

i have seen your presentation and sample, i think is is very fantastic. However, can you show an example how one can use your sample with MVVM or Prism. I have been having difficulty with the issue.

Secondly how can one display combobox with DataForm---- say categories in a product form.

Kind Regrds

Hi, I have a problem with the version of the database, the program can't load it and tell me that the current version of the database is 655 and my system can support only 612.

What kind of database is it ?

thanks,

fred

Hi Scott,

A nice presentation and sample.

I tried to run the finished application and got the following errors. I added the required assembly references and still getting the same errors. Any help is really appreciated.

Error 26 The type or namespace name 'Chart' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) \MIX10_CL08\MIX10_CL08\MIX10_CL08\Finished\MIX_CL08\MIX_CL08\obj\Debug\Views\Home.g.i.cs 82 18 MIX_CL08

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Theme' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) \MIX10_CL08\MIX10_CL08\MIX10_CL08\Finished\MIX_CL08\MIX_CL08\obj\Debug\MainPage.g.i.cs 40 18 MIX_CL08

Thanks,

Samanf

You've had a very nice talk .. now you're my 2nd spokesman after Scott Hanselman. Joy, passion and ... I believe a lot of preparation!

I only have a suggestion: please specify in your article that the database used is ONLY in the final application from zip file, otherwise the ones using the start one wouldn't know where the database is.

Best regards,

Hi Trees,

Thanks for the heads up. The download has been updated to include all of the necessary dlls. Please see the notes section however to see the limitations.

As far as your questions:

1. The new Silverlight 4 binding work was not part of the SL3+ work that made it into the phone, so for now expect a Silverlight 3 validation experience.

2. The ThemeUri feature is part of the next drop of the Silverlight Toolkit which you can expect when SL4 RTW ships.

3. There are a few ways that you can do this, one of which is adding an additional property to your object to indicate that a validation is in progress. You can then check this property in your application and not allow a commit until it is no longer busy. We have discussed having an interface that standardizes this process, but for SL4 you will have to do it yourself.

As far as controlling if there are more pages, it is up to the app author since every application is different. For instance, the PageSize property that is exposed can be used for pagination scenarios if you have a long list of items.
