This article describes how to install the Silverlight Toolkit and then add a reference to the tool kit DLLs in your Visual Studio project.

When I initially installed Silverlight Toolkit I couldn't where the installer placed the files. After some investigation I discovered the Toolkit files were installed to:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight.

Here's the install instructions from A-Z.

Download and Install

1. Surf to http://silverlight.codeplex.com.
2. Click on Downloads menu item.
3. Click on the download link below Recommended Download.
   Select download link #1 for the binaries in an MSI file.
   Select download link #2 for the source code in a ZIP file.
4. The file downloads to your computer.
5. Double-click on the MSI file.
6. Follow the installation instructions.

2. Right-click over References folder.
3. Click on Add Reference...
4. Click Browse tab.
5. Browse to \Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v4.0\Toolkit\Apr 10\Bin
6. Select the DLLs you want to add.
7. Click on OK.
