Hi Yogesh, First of all, as you are using Visual Studio 2008 you can develop only Silverlight 3 applications using the IDE. Visual Studio 2008 doesn't support Silverlight 4. If you use Visual Studio 2010, you can develop both Silverlight 3 and Silverlight 4. Assuming you want Silverlight 3 using Visual Studio 2008. For this, you need to install the Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Service Pack 1). Once you upgraded to SP1, you need to download and install the Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2008 SP1. Once installed properly, you will be able to create a new Silverlight project using your Visual Studio IDE. Let me know, if you need more help.

Correct. Since the OP is using VS2008, he can only use SL2 or SL3 and not SL4. This requires VS 2010.
that is right :) because i did the deploy on vs 2010, silverlight 4.
