Tried to restore the USLastNames sample database provided in the tinyurl.com/3dbtpm link into SQL Server 2008 and received an error: "specified cast is not valid". Perhaps this is a SQL Server version issue - not sure. Would like to see more guidance on how to restore the backup database. Without the ability to muck around with the sample, I lose alot of the value in this chapter. I'll try to muck up my own example in the meantime - but at least it would be helpful to see the necessary components of the schema at a glance so that I could create my own database. |

I'm not sure if I am reading this wrong or what else but first in chapter 6 "List Mania" the Insert statement doesn't work. On 175 in the 3rd paragraph is says "you're updating new rows in question; you ensure that with the AND ip_pk =" idPK; where is this. In the code snippets it's not there and I'm having a problem thinking of where to put it. Next how and why does the Default.aspx.cs suddenly have code in it from the ToDo.aspx.cs page other then a few changes in the code. I'm not sure if its just me but I would have gone back over my work before printing it out or in this case publising the book and making sure the data files could be restored. |

A parameter needs to be set for the SqlDataObject in order for the Insert command to add an ID number referring to the logged in user. Otherwise, new To-Do items are added to the data but do not appear in the list. The Insert command needs the parameters filled somewhere. Either in the code-behind or through data binding. |

Using Silverlight 3.0, the "StackPanel" Silverlight control is not displaying the "CheckBox" controls in IE 8.0 or Firefox 3.0. I've also added a "TextBlock" control and still was not able to display the "StackPanel". |

Chapter 11 begins by stating that is will cover II7 and ASP.NET but it never refers to these terms again in the chapter |
