Episode 4, 'U is for Update' takes you through validating user input, handling button clicks, saving data changes back to the database, and canceling changes. The screencast shows how to use the PropertyChanged event with more examples of wedging your own code into generated partial classes..

Note: The previous episodes are prerequisites: Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3

Sometimes the video might not be available because of some internal problems of the Silverlight streaming services. Please excuse us for the inconvience, we hope that this problem will be fixed very soon.

This is the fifth of 8 videos by Ken Cox about the development of CRUD application using Silverlight and Visual Basic.NET.

Episode 5: "D" is for Delete probes data associations, properties and links in the Entity Framework. It takes you step by step through the code to delete a customer, the customer's orders, and the order details. I hope you find it worthwhile.

Make sure you've worked through Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3, and Episode 4 first. Without them, you won't have the prerequisite code or project infrastructure to succeed in this episode.

Check out the third of 8 videos by Ken Cox about the development of CRUD application using Silverlight and Visual Basic.NET.

In Episode 3 of my series on creating a Silverlight 2 Data Form, we display the details of the selected item and explore the DataContext property. I spend some time on the interesting and flexible ObservableCollection objects and configure automatic UI updating by implementing INotifyPropertyChanged.

The tasks shown include: Creating the Silverlight project, adding the database, setting up the ADO.NET Entity data model, and implementing an ADO.NET data service.
 

The demo is a small, but realistic example of how to create a CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) application against the familiar Northwind database. It uses the latest stuff from Microsoft including Windows Communication Foundation, ADO.NET Data Services (Astoria), and the Entity Framework.
