This is my fourth article in a series focusing on Silverlight 2.0 development using Visual Studio 2008. Technically, we will have Silverlight 2.0 controls accessing a regular WCF Service and do an INSERT operation against the database using the “LINQ to SQL” model.
As I hinted in earlier articles in this series, to overcome the deficiencies of the ASP.NET Web Forms solution, Microsoft created an alternative to Web Forms—the ASP.NET MVC framework. In the MVC framework, a whole web application is separated into three components: the model, view, and controller. We will take a close look at this approach in this article, the third part of a four-part series.
With so many users blatantly refusing to make the switch to Windows Vista, I thought it might be a good time to revisit some of the top add-ons for Windows XP. These add-ons are designed to implement missing features, and increase productivity. Oh, and don’t worry if you are a Vista user. Most of these add-ons will work for you as well!
This is my third article in a series focusing on Silverlight 2.0 (RC 1) development using Visual Studio 2008. In this article, we will create a simple “LINQ to SQL” model, access the model with a WCF Service and consume the same using a Silverlight 2.0 application. Technically, we will have Silverlight 2.0 controls accessing a regular WCF Service and fetch information from the database using the “LINQ to SQL” model. Discuss (1)
Last time we began comparing ASP.NET Web Forms with ASP.NET MVC. We examined the strengths of Web Forms. This time we will start by taking a close look at its weaknesses. This is the second part of a four-part series.
In my last article, I showed you how you can use the Microsoft’s Image Mastering API (IMAPI2) control to create and burn single session CDs from a directory of files. Today, we’re going to take another look at the IMAPI2 control to create multisession CDs.
This is my second article in a series focusing on Silverlight 2.0 (beta 2) development using Visual Studio 2008. This article is for beginners who are quite new to Silverlight development and need a practical introduction to developing Silverlight applications which consume WCF services using Visual Studio 2008.

In this four-part series, of which this is the first article, I will make clear to you whether the newly-produced Microsoft ASP.NET MVC architecture will take the place of ASP.NET Web Forms solution, which you may have been exploring. In fact, by comparing the main pros and cons of both, you will see that neither solution will replace the other; they will keep on evolving and be leveraged to solve different kinds of tasks.
With the release of Windows XP and later, the Windows operating system gained a built-in CD burning feature. The Microsoft Image Mastering API (IMAPI) was created to provide programmers with a method of creating disc images and to provide access to Windows’ CD burning feature.
