  • msdn2 Assuming you have some kind of “Contact” button that the user is pressing (or something else that works the same way), I would add a new Page (called something like “ContactPage.xaml”) to the project and on that page add the option to either call or email (it could be as simple as having a “Call” button and an “Email” button), then when the user presses the “Contact” button, navigate to that page.

    If you need to set data (like the phone number and email address) at runtime, you could do so either by passing parameters (see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff626521(VS.92).aspx ) or by creating class members in the new contact page class that are static (C#)/Shared (VB) that you can then just set before navigating to the contact page. I personally like the second method better, but either way should work fine.


  • msdn3 Hi again!
