ok, i know this is the lazy way but after a while trying i cannot see the obvious answer. And, it's been one of these days where every simple thing i want to do ends up requiring Google!!

I have a Silverlight MVVM project and all is good except I cannot figure out how to stop the BeginRefresh code running at design time without the use of :

if (!System.ComponentModel.DesignerProperties.GetIsInDesignMode(this))
  BeginRefresh(.....

I tried using d:DataContext and IsDesignTimeCreatable but still couldn't figure out how to present the xaml so that it works at runtime but behaves at design time.

I don't want to have to code that if statement all over the place.

Any one?
