Silverlight connectivity with database using ado.net

Question

I want to connect my sql server 2005 database using ado.net in silverlight.

I want to connect manually to my database.

Please give me examples of populating gridview in silverlight manually.

Thanks

Silverlight doesn't support ADO.NET. You'll have to make a web service call and have your web method access the database. Check out this article for some help getting started.

Hope this helps!
