Question

I would like to be able to invoke the Bing built-in search application from my silverlight based wp7 application when the user clicks on a button in my application. Is this possible?

You need to use a SearchTask

SearchTask searchTask = new SearchTask();
searchTask.SearchQuery = "Overflow7";
searchTask.Show();
