 Thanks for reply,

I am going through the links sent by you.

Can we have any Usercontrol in my page?

Actually this question says that Can a silverlight Page (object of the page class) contains a usercontrol.

I got the answer also after searching on the net

the answer is

Usercontrol is just like another control which you can place in any other container control( this can be a grid, canvas, stackPanel or another usercontrol and any Page(Navigation Page). You can do it using two ways . 1. using xaml 2. using code view.

1. using xaml.

just include xmlns:test="clr-namespace:TestUserControl"  where

Test is any string you can keep as prefix of your control. and

TestUserControl is the name space in which the silverlight usercontrol resides.

then

<navigation:Page x:Class="SilverlightApplication1.Page1"
           xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
           xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
           xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
           xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
           mc:Ignorable="d"
           xmlns:navigation="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
           xmlns:test="clr-namespace:TestUserControl "
           Title="Page1 Page">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" ShowGridLines="True">
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="20"></RowDefinition>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"></RowDefinition>
            <RowDefinition Height="20"></RowDefinition>
        </Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <ColumnDefinition></ColumnDefinition>
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <TextBlock Text="Hello Welcome to the SilverLight" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"></TextBlock>
        <TextBlock Text="This is footer." Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="0"></TextBlock>
        <test:TestUserControl Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0"></test:TestUserControl>
    </Grid>
</navigation:Page>

 

2. using code view you can create the instance of usercontrol and add it in the children list of the containercontrol such as grid.
