      Yes. You can. but I'm sure that this is NOT a good way. I highly recommend you to use VS 2008 for developing Silverlight application.. UX team from Microsoft put a lot of efforts in Silverlight 2 that you can't get the template in VS 2005. So, if you are using VS 2005, you will miss a lot of features.. another thing is "support". There are a number of active community member who are willing to help the Silverlight 2 problems. (cuz they can learn from your problems.) So, if you are just a starter of Silverlight, I suggest you to use VS 2008 instead of VS 2005. You can read my reply in this link below. Minimum Requirements for Silverlight?[^] Let me know if you have any question.

      Thanks and Regards, Michael Sync ( Blog: http://michaelsync.net)

        You're better off with VS2008 if you are going to do anything with Silverlight. I've tried with VS2005 and it is not as pleasant as VS2008 :)

          Since you seem to be the man to ask - I installed the beta 2 tools and what not, but there doesn't seem to be any drag and drop support in the VS 2008 designer and the properties windowy/sidebar thingy is empty. Is this correct?

            Yes, it is seems so. Right now I am using VS2008 and Expression Blend combo...
