    Resolved [RESOLVED] need some clarifications on WPF and WCF

    hi all,

    just wanted to get some enlightenment on some things. is WPF for Standalone Application and WCF is used for creating Web Applications? i'm actually a fan of Standalone Applications (where there's an MDI Parent and MDI Children type application, with Menus and Toolbar Buttons etc.) and have been using WinForms for sometime but i want to learn how to create Standalone application (using the same approach where there's MDI Parent and Child etc.) using WPF. i've read that this is possible but i haven't got a clue how to begin.

    thanks.

    WCF is for creating web services, ASP.NET is for web applications. Think of web services as class libraries which sit on remote web servers.

    As for WPF, have a look at the thread at the top of this forum - it should contain tutorials on WPF. As well as WCF.
