Nowadays, with the increasing adoption of Silverlight, it is not uncommon to integrate one or more Silverlight controls in an existing asp.net website. More or less, it utilizes the integration logic demonstrated in this Telerik TV entry - http://tv.telerik.com/watch/silverlight/webinar/radcontrols-silverlight-aspnet and Manol’s blogpost - http://blogs.telerik.com/manoldonev/posts/09-03-17/silverlight_radchart_interoperability_with_asp_net.aspx . If you want to know how RadMap for Silverlight can be bound to RadGrid in ASP.NET go ahead and keep reading. The most important steps are as follows: 1. Prepare the Silverlight application, adding references to the dlls of the controls it contains. In our case, this is a simple XAML page, containing a RadMap control: Code...

In the previous post we discussed how you could quickly create a new Visual Studio project, configured to use the Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC targeting ASP.NET MVC 3.

With the new SP1 release of Q3 2010 we added a new feature to RadScheduleView that helps you customize every slot in a different way. To do that you should create an instance of the Slot class, set its Start and  End  properties, the Resources property - with this property you can define in which resource column the slot will be displayed, and the RecurrencePattern property - with this property you can define whether the slot will be displayed for repeating days or events like Christmas, WeekendDays  and Birthdays.
