How To Install a WPF ToolKit

Here are the steps to get started:

Instructions for using the WPF Toolkit binaries:

Install .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
If you have a previous version of WPF Toolkit installed, uninstall it through the Remove Programs dialog on the Control Panel (look for "WPF Toolkit October 2008" or "WPF Toolkit January 2009" or "WPF Toolkit March 2009" or "WPF Toolkit June 2009")
Download the WPFToolkit_Binaries or WPFToolkit_BinariesAndSource
Run the WPFToolkit.msi to install the WPFToolkit.dll and WPF Toolkit design time binaries to your Program Files folder
Reference the binaries in your project:
1. Reference WPFToolkit.dll in your project.
2. Add a using statement ("using Microsoft.Windows.Controls;") to the top of .cs files
3. Add a new xmlns (for example, xmlns:toolkit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wpf/2008/toolkit") to the top of XAML files
  1. Remember to use the namespace prefix (in the above example, ) in the body of your XAML

What version of Visual Studio are you using? You don't need it if you are using Visual Studio 2010.
