    Building BI Dashboards with Telerik RadControls for Silverlight and WPF Webinar Follow-up

    Despite the initial audio and connectivity issues, the Building BI Dashboards with RadControls for Silverlight and WPF Webinar proceeded well and we got to dive into some of the issues people face in these scenarios as well as how RadControls for Silverlight and RadControls for WPF can help answer those challenges.  This is very close to the presentation that I gave this past weekend at the New England BI Code Camp, except the webinar is a little more focused on Telerik controls.  :) In this presentation, we look at a fictional requirements list for a customer would look like and why Silverlight or WPF can...

    TechEd New Orleans and 2 free passes for DevLink Nashville

    In roughly two weeks we will converge at TechEd New Orleans – arguably the biggest developer event worldwide.

Telerik will be at TechEd in full force, both speaking and exhibiting. You will be able to find us at our usual `shiny black booth``.   If you attended DevConnections Las Vegas, then you are familiar with the kind of show we put up at conferences – here are...

There are however some things we need to note. There were some installation-related problems reported already by some of our customers. In some of the cases the Domain Model template was not available in the Add New Item dialog. In others after finishing the Add New Item Wizard the new items...

    Telerik OpenAccess SP1 Available

    Telerik has released Service Pack 1 of OpenAccess ORM, available now for download. There are a lot of new features (and of course bug fixes) but the three most important are: The new LINQ implementation works fully with Visual Studio 2010 The Data Services Wizard is now fully integrated with the product, no separate install A beta of RIA Services support I will be doing a blog post on each of these in the coming weeks (expect some delays with TechEd US in the way.) One more thing to mention is that the Data Services Wizard now generates a Silverlight client and will give you the ability to automatically style...

    I’ve made small demo on how to create column chooser for any RadGridView in few very simple steps:   1. Add new ChildWindow:   2.
