Add intellisense for Silverlight to Visual Studio


I only noticed this little gem because I was getting frustrated with what I was trying to do and forced myself to sit down and read the documentation from start to finish.

In the the Silverlight 1.1 Alpha SDK, Microsoft provides you with an XSD to add to your Visual Studios schemas which enables intellisense for Silverlight XAML files.  What’s more, you can add it to your Visual Studio Express edition for those of you, who like me, don’t own the full Visual Studios.

I’ve uploaded the XSD to my blog and you can get it here (silverlight.xsd, right-click and Save As) and simply paste the file into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Xml\Schemas.

Enjoy!
