I know the service call is spitting out RTF, but why RTF and not, say, PDF?
it sounds like you just need to render them, not interact with them.

no principles involved. They were sick of Steam continually annoying

your mention of Valve software is interesting: both my teens have

how on earth can people take you seriously calling yourself a "Sr.

and on a forum like this? a SILVERLIGHT forum?
here's a hint: give up now and sign up for Microsoft's Dynamics CRM

yeah, I'm a bit unsure of the usage.
if it was a WPF or Adobe AIR app, with reconnect sync of data then I'd
understand and appreciate. but in-browser Silverlight... still runs in
a browser... which means being online

I think Scott is fully aware the situation - he was trying to get his
business into a $15,000 Flex 1.5 license only months before Flex2 came
