I was looking at if we had web apps installed on our webserver would it provide some form of communication with lightswitch.
So we could open word docs et... from within a browser.
There are odata providers that work with google docs , office web apps are supposed to be similar .

Thats my next project Michael, unfortunately Telerik controls have released a new version which only supports silverlight 5.
I was kind of thinking out loud with this one, linking to office 365 etc so I could sync outlook calendars etc..
There is a fix , but I dont have a clue how to install it .

Hello Martin,
I have a Telerik subscription, and I can see both SL4 and SL5 versions of their controls, so you should still be able to work with them. Might be worth sending a support question to make sure first, but I think you should be OK.
Hope this helps
