Hi,
Just to make you aware; the visual studio toolbox was not populated with the Telerik Silverlight controls after the installation. I had to add them in manually. Also, when editing my xaml page in blend, your controls did not show up in the Asset Library, again I had to add a reference to the Telerik dlls manually.

Hello Paul Gallen,
Yes - we are aware that the installation is not including the controls in the Toolbox of VS. We researched hard on this, but could not find a solution about how to implement it. It seems like this is a VS tooling error. Once we find a way to automatically insert the controls in the toolbox we will update the install scripts. Same issue goes for the Blend.
Thanks for the feedback - keep it coming!
Kind regards,

I cant add any controls to the toolbox. When I select a DLL from the installation's Binaries folder, i get the below error:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
There are no components in 'C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControls for Silverlight Q3 2008\Binaries\Silverlight\Telerik.Windows.Controls.dll' that can be placed on the toolbox.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
"
Any ideas? Do I need to have Silverlight SDK installed or something?

Never mind, it worked on a different machine. I think I had to install Silverlight tools for VS 2008.

I'm also having troubles installing the controls.
I can make silverlight projects in Visual Studio 2008, but when I go to toolbox items,
I don't have the tab "Silverlight Components". How do I get this tab in VS 2008 so
I can install the controls??
Thanks,
Nate
