Hi,

If I want to access a web service that returns a dataset but I don't think the silverlight grid will accept a dataset as a datasource? What do I need to do the render the dataset at the silverlight client.  The dataset(s) returned are totally dynamic so I cannot code for any one particular dataset schema (I don't think linq works for me).  Could I convert the dataset to an xml and xsd format?  Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks
Rich

Hi Richard,

A very good solution to you problem is to use WCF services that expose your database to Silverlight. Here you can find a more detailed answer to your enquiry.
