Hello,

I have MSVC 2005 and I like to learn Silverlight. What do I need and can I
get them free (It is just for learning so any restriction is acceptable)?

is there any newsgroup about Silverlight?

Regards

Hello m.a,

You need Silverlight SDK for 1.1 version
MS now aimed on 2.0 version for VS 2008

You'll make your Silverlight life much easier if you install MSVC 2008.

Download MSVC 2008 here :
http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/

It will coexist happily with your MSVC2005 installation.

Then, download the Silverlight Tools/SDK at :

Thanks.
I download and installed MSVC 2008 express (which is free) and then
download
Microsoft Silverlight Tools Beta 1 for Visual Studio 2008
but when I try to install silverlight, I am getting the error that msvc is
not installed or web authoring is not installed.
What is the problem?

Best regards
