I'm having a hard time finding documentation on connecting to VFP databases
and tables... have you seen anything out there?

Thanks Dave. This is the kind of stuff that makes me regret VFP not being
able to play in the dot net sandbox. Things that should be simple in C#
aren't. I guess I'll have to go with putting a button in the datagrid,which
is also a lot of work, but seems to be the quickest way to do this.

Thanks,

John Harvey

The honest answer is this: I don't know. That being said, I have two ideas
that may work...

If your cell is in a predictable location on the grid, you might be able to
assign a hyperlink based on the mouse position or as a mouse hover event or
click event over the coordinates of that cell. Another approach would be to
create a rectangle object and assign it in the cell coordinate area, but
position it at Z -1 to render it underneath your grid. That way you could
populate your cell with the text, but let the "invisible" rectangle handle
the linking chores via a click event. If you were to change the cursor
behavior for the rectangle to be a Hand, then the end user would still get
the visual cues they would expect. If you really wanted to fake it, you
could assign the text the traditional hyperlink-blue font color to complete
the illusion.

I am writing an app that uses ESRI mapping with Silverlight and c#. I am
having an issue trying to use a silverlight datagrid and putting a text
hyperlink in. I've got some code that talks about using an image to do the
hyperlink, but not text. I want to be able to launch webpages for things
like Google Street View, pulling offense reports, etc. Do you have any idea
of how to do this? Some have suggested I use a stackpanel, but I've already
written the code that produces the datagrid and I'm happy with it. I just
need the hyperlinks functioning.

Thanks,

John Harvey

Tis true! I am getting into it a bit ... It reminds me a lot of MS Frontpage
when it first hit the market. Loads of potential, but a few rough edges
around the outside. I'm in the "legos" stage now, where I learn a simple
technique, document the heck out of it, and then stick it in the library.
Once I get enough blocks, I start building with them. Silverlight 3 is
enticing for me as I can program once and use it for the desktop and for the
web. I'm using C# for code-behind now, and it's all XAML up front. 
They've done a nice job with Expression Blend, the GUI toolset. It has fair
depth and does a nice job reducing the amount of code you have to write for
simple apps and animations, especially if you add in some of the extras and
toolkits that are up on the Silverlight website. Most of these include
source code as well, so it has been a great learning experience thus far:
I've used the "legos" to build a simple media player, twitter tool, photo
carousels, and some basic animations. If you decide to check it out, please
let me know if I can help you out if you get stuck on something.

David Smith (who does contribute to ProFox) has been working with it, and
likes it (still learning, he says).
