I downloaded the Silverlight controls and looked at the example. It is very impressive but I am hoping that you can provide a very simple grid example cookbook style that will give me a jumpstart.. i.e. Step 1 - create new visual studio project Silverlight ASP.NET. Step 2 create grid xaml example Step 3 Create Code behind example Step 4. Add WCF web service etc. etc. If you have a working example of something like this would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks

I believe, you can use this example as a starting point. It is shipped with the installer, and you have full source code for both the ASP.NET website (the ExamplesWeb project), the Silverlight project (the Examples.GridView.GridView.CS or Examples.GridView.GridView.VB projects). The ExamplesWeb also hosts a ADO.NET data service that the example binds to.
We do not have a WCF service example yet, but plan to add one pretty soon. Tell me if you need additional help with getting that example running.

I have written a data service that returns the following data object List<Customer>. I want the class to display in the datagrid as a hiarchy and since I have many other data objects I would like the datagrid to be able to also display the other data objects dynamically. I'm hoping that the datagrid can build the hiarchy dynamically based on the class provided. I am currently using the Microsoft DataGrid which does not display the hiarchy and I would like to replace it with the Telerik datagrid. See Customer class and my current XAML code below. I highlighted the Datagrid xaml...its at the end..
Thanks

See last email from me for this thread. I tried to change the Microsoft Grid for the Telerik grid, but it fails when the page is loading. I'm hoping you can help. If I pull out the reference to theTelerik Grid and go back to the MS Grid it works.
Thanks
Rich
public Page()
{
InitializeComponent();
Should I be doing something here?
I don't access the web service to get the data until a button is pressed,
However the page with the button does not get rendered.
}
private
void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)
{
this.RootVisual = new Page();
} Fails here when I press F10 and goes to to Application_UnhandledException

It seems that you do not have reference to System.Windows.Controls.Data. In this forum thread you can find information how to solve the problem.
About the first post:
What you need is a "Property Hierarchy". There is a good example in our online demo how to create such hierarchy with a few lines of code.
