I have data aware objects on my MainPage that I need to access in a PrintPage. Switching root children will allow me to navigate to my PrintPage and delay printing until all of my controls have loaded, but I need the data object from my MainPage to build data aware objects on my PrintPage. I have been working for two weeks to print a page with maps and charts. My maps and charts are not printing because they never get rendered. Can I access the objects in my cached MainPage in my PrintPage?

Objective is to share an alternative of doing it , as in when in my next article where i will discuss navigation using navigation framework in Silverlight 3 , reader can then best asses the beauty and flexibility of this navigation framework. Also there are circumstances when you can't use navigation framework. Hope i met your expectations somewhere, Thanks for reading manas. Regards
