There are plenty of examples of retrieving data for display via the Infragistics Silverlight controls.
I find no examples of persisting data entered via Silverlight controls to a data store. Is this because the typical data source for a Silverlight control implements the IEnumerable interface, which isn't updateable?
Hello Jason,
Below is the documentation and samples on Infragistics Persistence Framework.

Uh... No...
I'm not interested in the "Control Persistence Framework".
Almost all of the Silverlight examples show how data can be retrieved from a data source, but they don't show how the data is stored back to the data source.
Pretend I never used the work "persisting" and instead I used the word "saving".
Hello,
You may update the data using WCF RIA services. Below is the help documentation explaining how to use WCF RIA with XamGrid.

I have also found some more articles on web on how to update data to the data base using silverlight controls.

I am just checking if you still require any assistance or clarification on the matter.
Thank you for the followup.
No, we don't need further assistance.
Yes, I found the latest links you provided (and others I discovered) to be relevant.
We have been successful in implementing a prototype which implements the xamSchedule controls and which allows us to save data to our SQL Server data store.
