I am really getting stuck. beacause I am using Isolation storage but it's still not providing ID so there is no scope to use it.
It's really solid problem I am suffering to using silverlight.
Is there any solution for this how to connect database with silverlight.
Thanks...!!
Yes, always there is a solution.
Silverlight does not support Database connectivity, I know it seems weird but it is very good for a lot of reasons.
The solution is to create a WCF Service and use it to get the data.
Silverlight <---> WCF Service <---> SQL Server
Here is a simple example: Consuming WCF Services in Silverlight
and here is an advanced one: Using WCF RIA Services
Looks like you are trying to connect to a database directly from a Silverlight application.
That is not possible. Silverlight does not provide a way to connect to a database directly. You must use a Web Service instead.
Try looking into WCF Data Services/RIA Services. They work great with Silverlight applications.
Here is a good tutorial from Brad Abrams on RIA Services.
