Is there a document viewer control available in telerik silverlight control

[Niranjan]

Hi,

I want to show word document template coming from database table populated with some dynamic fields in silverlight environment to the end user so that end user can view the document and then, i want to capture and store the user acceptance information into database.

So, I would like to know if there is a document viewer control available in telerik silverlight controls. Kindly let me know.

FYI, We already have purchased version of telerik silverlight control library but i can't find documentviewer control in this library. Kindly advise me your valuable suggestions.


Thanks,
Niranjan Rao Ch.

Hi Niranjan,

RadControls for Silverlight includes a document viewer control - RadRichTextBox, which is able to preview and edit rich text documents. You can check our online demos here.
When it comes to saving the documents, RadRichTextBox supports the following formats for import/export - docx, RTF, HTML and a proprietary XAML format. For more information on the use of format providers for import and export you can refer to this article. When it comes to  data-binding, you can use the available data providers.
As for the persistence of the documents in a database, this can be done using WCF (RIA) services. There are examples with XamlDataProvider (data-binding) and DocxFormatProvider (explicit import/export) in this forum thread.

I hope this helps.

All the best,
Iva Toteva
