Regard The Sequence of XAML Style Definition
Going through a Windows Store App XAML sample, I came to the point where a pre-defined style, located in Common/StandardStyles.xaml file, should be used.

Silverlight, Telerik GridView, Dynamically Created Loaded Handler & Performance
I like Silverlight, Telerik’s GridView control and the ability to create the columns of a grid dynamically. Recently, I had to build up a grid during runtime. The number of columns and the header text is unknown at design time (read it from the database), but nothing to worry about. …
