Hi,

Check this blog-

http://pkrd.blogspot.com/2009/08/silverlight-and-database-without-linq.html

It may help you out-

If it is not a database, then simply create a class for example Student-

public class Students
{
      public int InstanceID { get; set; }
      public int StudentID { get; set; }
      public string Subject { get; set; }
      public string Result { get; set; }
      public string FailedReason { get; set; }
}

Then Create a WCF Service method which will return List<Students> class by adding the multiple instances to collection of Students object.

public List<Students> FetchStudentResult() 
{

         List<Students> studCol=new List<Students>();

        studCol.Add(new Student(){StudentID=10,Subject="Eng", Result="Pass",FailedReason="None"}); 

        return studCol;

}

Thanks,

Pravin

Hi,

Try to re-create service reference and configure it to return a list at Service Reference Settings window. That window open with Advenced... button at Add Service Reference window.

I must return a list of different object each one.

every object is a table in my database. List<object> because I have different structure for every db table.

How can I return from wcf to SL3 a list of different object?
