Hi Gustav, Some more info/samples of XAML, WPF, XBAP: http://shamils-4.hosting.parking.ru/xbap/PostCard3D.xbap - MSDN XBAP sample I tested online http://www.wpflearningexperience.com/webcasts/babygreeting/XbapBabyGreeting. xbap - XBAP online sample Note: using XBAP needs IE (it worked also (partially) with Opera or FirFox (can't remember now)) What can be done within XBAP sandbox frames/plug-ins running within browser can be similarly or even in the more advanced way done for WPF FE client applications or for SilverLight apps... And here are useful XAML "power toys" - http://karlshifflett.wordpress.com/xaml-power-toys/ - I haven't used them yet but I do plan to do that with a first good occasion - a business application to get an interface developed using WPF....

I'm developing a project with WPF client GUI here now. It's a great technology. You can create any kind of GUI using WPF. In fact XAML, WPF, XBAP and SilverLight people say are currently becoming mainstream technologies to develop rich user interface (for Windows)..

Any good examples? /gustav _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com
