Property Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if there is at least one entry in the forward navigation history; otherwise, false.
Remarks

Examples
The following example shows buttons within a Silverlight page that allow forward and back navigation. The page uses the NavigationService property of the Page class to access the navigation service used by the hosting frame.
Private Sub BackNavButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
If (NavigationService.CanGoBack) Then
NavigationService.GoBack()
End If
End Sub
Private Sub ForwardNavButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
If (NavigationService.CanGoForward) Then
NavigationService.GoForward()
End If
End Sub
private void BackNavButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (NavigationService.CanGoBack)
{
NavigationService.GoBack();
}
}
private void ForwardNavButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (NavigationService.CanGoForward)
