Anyway, dragging and dropping a datasource table from the Data Sources pane onto the Xaml designer does nothing. No errors. No output in the output window. Nada.

Anyone got a spare 5 mins to try this and see if it works? cheers, Stephen On Sun, Mar 27, 2011 at 12:12 PM, Stephen Price <[email protected]>wrote: > Cool, will check it out. > > In the meantime I thought I'd walkthrough a simple EF walkthrough... > http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd465159(VS.100).aspx > > The step where you drag and drop the datasource to the designer to generate > the datasource (step 5 - From the *Data Sources* window, drag the * > Customers* node to the area under the buttons.) just plain does not work. > I drag and drop and nothing happens.
