Silverlight - Connecting to remote database - WCF

This tutorial will show how connect to a server database from a Silverlight application. I will be using Visual Studio 2010 and Silverlight 4. So first, we will create a Silverlight 4 application..

Next, we are just going to put a DataGrid on our MainPage.xaml. I have given the XAML so it can be copied and pasted.
