The simplest solution would be using a Timer Class. I am not sure which class to instantiate for Timer in Silverlight. Or You can use the Background worker: public RefreshGrid() { // Do refresh here // Start BackgroundWorker worker = new BackgroundWorker(); worker.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(worker_DoWork); worker.RunWorkerAsync(); } private void worker_DoWork(object sender DoWorkEventArgs e) { Thread.Sleep(1000 * 60 * 2); RefreshGrid(); }
