Re: Silverlight Reporting apps

Hi Miguel I'll properly write up the list and send it when I've finished my testing. Most of the bugs currently centre around the DataPager control - it's got a few of them. In regards to the SelectedValue issue, I wrote this up in this article here: http://www.silverlightshow.net/items/Building

Re: Validation on non visible datagrid

How are you implementing validation? Data annotations, or manually? If you're using Silverlight 4 and doing it manually, then Miguel's response is probably best. If you are using data annotations, then use the Validator class to validate the selected item in the DataGrid. But in Silverlight 3 +

Re: Invalid XML (Key attribute fixed)

Commanding wasn't actually implemented in Silverlight 3, so I'm guessing that's why you're experiencing the behaviour that you are. Silverlight 3 had the ICommand interface, but no controls actually supported it (they didn't have the Command/CommandParameter properties). So you'd expect Expressio

Also try deleting the Generated_Code folder from under your Silverlight project's folder. That forces the client side regeneration (which I've personally found more reliable than cleaning / rebuilding the solution). Chris On 12 August 2010 19:27, Tony Wright wrote: > Have you done a clean so

Re: Complex region selection

Well, it's mainly used to demonstrate how much you can customise the ListBox control using a control template, but you've also got the advantage of each state being "selectable" using the functionality already provided by the ListBox control. I think it's quite a neat way to go about the problem.
