Hi Cesar,

If you are willing to create your own tool, you can take a look at our Locate" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/silverlightviewer/samples/start.html]Locate Address sample. If you look at the AddressToLocationCommand.cs file, you'll see that you can specify any geocode server to be used for the LocatorTask.

Hope that helps,
Katy

From ESRI:

"The Silverlight viewer already has a built in geocode service from ArcGIS Online. Using the search tool you can enter an address or place name to geocode the location. As of now it is not possible to use your own geocode service in the Silverlight Viewer"

enhancement request NIM077119: Add the function to support customer address locator in ArcGIS viewer for Silverlight 1.0.
