Jesse - Thank you for the videos. Very informative to get started.

One question: i couldn't help notice you were using Google as your default search engine and you work for microsoft. How do you expect your company (Microsoft) to gave any traction in search if you, as an employee, can't use it? Even if you use Google for search, couldn't you atleast pretend for the visitors on this site that you support your company?

i love what you are doing with silverlight, though.

thanks

I am experiencing a strange error here -- at least it seems strange to me.  When I attempt to assign a style in my subcontrols by associating a staticresource style name as defined in app.xaml, my containing control stops working.  Furthermore, I get a error message --> AG_E_UNKNOWN_ERROR [Line: 105 Position: 27].  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Vinney

Not talking an behalf of J. Liberty, but as you can see the video thumbs on the video list side, there are actually at least two showing the Mozilla Firefox browser interface...

So the guys creating these videos are not instructed to "show only Microsoft things or do nothing at all"

Thanks to all contributors, especially Jesse Liberty for these videos.

How do you bind to the property of one of these user controls?

I created a control like this with a data class assigned to the DataContext and it worked but I could not then bind my page's ViewModel (a property on it) to a property on the user control.

lmsmokie, Jeez, let the man use the tools he wants.  Just because he is working for Microsoft doesn't mean he can't use Firefox or Google.  It shows me he has an independent mind and implies integrity and demonstrates realistic pragmatic development.  It also speaks well of Microsoft that they don't insult our intelligence by forcing Jesse (Tim H, et. al.) into not using very common ubiquitous tool.

I don't think Microsoft needs Jesse to be exclusively using Bing or Firefox in order to keep their company in the black, do you?

Very nice work Jesse.  Your books and tutorials have been invaluable.

Thanks for the video

I would like to know how to read the properties of the 2 user control created. to display the properties content,I would like to use a button located in the file Page.xaml that will display the properties in a message box.

Can you give me some hint. I'm not an expert in C#
