Can I build silverlight applications with Visual Studio 2005 Professional without installing or upgrading to Visual Studio 2008?

I mean, are there any tools available for Visual Studio 2005 like "Silverlight tools for Visual Studio 2008"?

I am waiting.... please tell me...
I shall be highly thankful to you from core of my heart for this...

Software Development & Web Development is my addiction. I am a Visual C# 2.0 and ASP.NET 2.0 Developer and working in Visual Studio 2005 using Dot Net Framework 2.0.

No, you need 2008.
You can use the free visual web developer 2008 sp1 to develop silverlight

If you are using Silverlight "1" (not 2) then you can probably use VS 2005..

Go through this guide http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/[^]

Basically you'll need only Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2008 SP1[^], it says it is for VS2008 Service Pack 1, do you have it installed? If not, go grab it from the MS site.

I just installed the Silverlight Tools a couple of days ago, on a freshly instaled Vista with VS2008SP1, and it worked fine for me.

To make it short:

When you create a new Silverlight project you actually get two projects in a solution
1. The actual Silverlight application
2. An ASP.net application, to execute the Silverlight application. After all the Silverlight app should be executed in a browser by a plugin.

Now, you are talking about the missing ASP.Net controls.
You are supposed to get only two of them, one is the "Silverlight" which is a placeholder your Silverlight app will work in, and another one is a asp.net control which represents a MediaPlayer.

Check the Silverlight application in the solution, this is where you will develop all the stuff.

I would also recommend you to get a good book on Silverlight and check the "Learning" section at www.silverlight.net

Lev

Hello,

You can use FR.Net in WPF:

using (Report report = new Report())
{
report.Load(...);
report.RegisterData(your_dataset);
report.Show();
}

Focusing problem ?

Hello everybody.
I have a Textbox and a Rectangle in my WPF window.
I want when a user click on the Rectangle this method runs and the Textbox gets the Focus :

void rect_MouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    Rectangle senderRectangle = sender as Rectangle;
    string name = Regex.Replace(senderRectangle.Name, @"Rect", "", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase) + "TextBox";
    TextBox destinationTextBox = this.FindName(name) as TextBox;
    destinationTextBox.Focus();
    destinationTextBox.SelectAll();
    destinationTextBox.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
}

void textBox_LostFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
	MessageBox.Show("LostFocus" );
}

But whenever the Textbox gets the Focus , it Loses the focus immediately and shows LostFocus message .

What's wrong with it ?
Thank you.
