As far as I know, you can develop for any version of Silverlight in VS2008, you just have to install all of the required tools and libraies to do it.

A little googling gave up this link:

Any Version John? How can you develop Silverlight 4 applications in VS2008, if the IDE itself is not supporting that? :)

Hi Ganesh,

Hope you want to install Silverlight 3 in VS2008.

Here are the steps for the installation:

1. First you need to upgrade your VS2008 to VS2008 SP1. To do this, just install the VS2008 Service Pack 1 which is a ~800MB standalone installer.
2. Install Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2008 SP1, which installs all the necessary things required for you.
3. Install Expression Blend 3, if you want to do some design stuffs. It gives you more power to your XAML design.

Wish you all the best. Let us know, if you have any queries.
