I have never used this part of visual C#. I ordered a book on it to day, but was sitting at the office looking at example in Visual Studio and was wondering what the best sights would be to find examples on such programs.

XBAP applications (if that is what you are refering to) require the client to have the .NET framework installed (as opposed to Silverlight that only requires the Silverlight plug-in)
This allows XBAP applications to use the entire functionality of the .NET framework which is much broader than Silverlight.

I answered by not just reading the title but also by looking at the remainder of the question. I figured Thomas wanted to know what this type of project is useful for/what it is. Also, he ticked this answer as the answer to his question. I am afraid the English in the question is a bit broken. So I might be wrong.

XBAP applications also may or may not have full trust and features depending on how you set it up and deploy it to the end users. An advantage to an XBAP is that your users will always use the latest version that you publish, say to a website.
