I'm having trouble writing what should be a simple sub-query using LINQ to Entities. I have two tables: Customers and Orders that have a relation on the CustID field. Not all Customers have a record in the Orders table, while some have mutiple records. In traditional SQL, you could write the query like this: SELECT * FROM Orders where CustID IN (SELECT CustID FROM Customers) I know this could be done as a JOIN in both SQL and L2E, but my actual query is more complex (about 8-9 joins), so I am hoping to find a L2E sub-query equivalent. Something like this:

I know LINQ to Entities does not support the " IN " clause, so I am looking for something that will work in its place.
What do i need to do in order to be able to query across multiple databases which are in the same db engine?
I have added the .edmx file of 1 database, but i only need 1 view from another db.
why use where condition before select statement in LINQ
View 2 Replieshow do you convert the WHERE clause of this statement to Linq ?
View 1 RepliesLinq add wildcard in the where clause dynamically I have a query, i.e.
var query = from r in context.company .....
then have some business logic and based on the validation I want to add dynamically a where clause
if(a == "1")
query = query.Where(r=> r.Name = Fullname); //works!!
else if(a == "2)
query = query.Where SqlMethods.Like(r=> r.Name,"%"+Fullname+"%"); //fails to compile , the r.Name is not found..
i have an problem to use of PATINDEX function in select clause with Linq.
View 1 RepliesI am using Linq to SQL. Tables have timestamp columns and I am using regular Linq methodology in ASP.NET MVC.I do use detached entities and always try to do updates without first querying the database for the original entity. To update an entity I use context.Attach(entity, true) followed by context.SubmitChanges() and all is fine. The sql statement that gets executed looks like:

Ive created a new LINQ To SQL class and dragged several tables across from my server, in my code I access them like this
[Code]....this is all ok, however, I have several stored procedures that I want to use as well, but when I drag the stored procedures across I get a compilatiopn error
Error 60 'DB_BL.DB_BLDataContext': type used in a using statement must be implicitly convertible to 'System.IDisposable'
how do I use stored procedures from LINQ with a using clause ?
I have the following statement:
List<string> tracks = new List<string> { "ABC", "DEF" };
var items = (from i in Agenda.AgendaSessions
select i).Where(p => p.Tracks.Any(s => tracks.Contains(s.Code)));
this returns all sessions which track contains either ABC or DEF, now when I rewrite the statement like the following, it returns All sessions regardless, as if the clause always yeilds into true,
var items = from i in Agenda.AgendaSessions
where i.Tracks.Any(s=> tracks.Contains(s.Code))
select i;
Update
if there are other clauses within the where, does that affect the results?
How to use Stored Procedures with Linq to Entities? I prefer an example with input and output The videos on asp.net only show how to do this with Linq to SQL.
View 5 RepliesI have a simple join:
SELECT * FROM MessageAlerts AS A LEFT OUTER JOIN Contacts AS C ON A.ContactId = C.Id LEFT OUTER JOIN
Users AS U ON A.UserId = U.Id INNER JOIN Businesses AS B ON B.Id = C.BusinessId OR B.UserId = U.Id
how to do this : ON B.Id = C.BusinessId OR B.UserId = U.Id with linq in entity framework.
WHY are all the examples on this site linq to SQL? Did ms not themselves announce dropping support for l2SQL over a year ago? i really don't get it. Examples are great.. but really not helping me since i've gone ahead and listened to MS. And can someone at MS clarify what the position is for linq 2 SQL.. Is it supported? Recommended? What the hell.
View 7 RepliesI am trying to learn LINQ to entities, and am working out how to best structure my BLL layer. I have generated the entity model and have created a generic repository in my DAL that returns results as IList<T>. I initially created the BLL to also return
results as IList<T>:
public IList<DAL.Customer> SelectAll()
{ [code]...
Now I am working on the aspx page, and I can create an ObjectDataSource and configure it to use my BLL, but since I am returning IList, I can't sort since I am not using a DataView. I have seen some articles on the web for converting IList to DataView, but that seems like a lot of overhead for every query.My goal is to keep a clean separation between layers without making things overly complicated. I would like to know how others have done this, or maybe a link to a good tutorial that shows how to structure all three layers.
I am building a web application in asp.Net 4.0 and entity framework. I am trying to retrieve a list of products based on a collection of id's. I first gather all the id's in a collection and then pass it to the linq query. I am trying to get a functionality similar to the IN clause in SQL. The problem seems to be with the Contains() method in the Linq to entities query. Here is my Linq code:

I got the above Linq to entities method from here: [URL]
I have a message table that self joins to itself where Message.ID == Message.Parent. So I have 1 Message with several ChildMessages. This is set up nicely with a Navigation property.
The code is currently:
var message = from m in soe.Messages.Include("ChildMessages")
where m.ID == id
&& m.IsActive
select m;
return message.FirstOrDefault();
What I really want is to only return 1 Message (that is equal to a particular ID and isActive) with all of its Active ChildMessages and I want to do it in one call to the database.
I have a table of user ids that is huge.
I have an array of user ids that I want.
I have two tables that have a foreign user id key.
What is the best way to get this information performance wise?
Ideally in SQL the final result would be somewhat like this (null values if there is no user ID in one table but not the other):
userid table1value table2value
1 null 12
5 123 null
i have a table with a field name called 'Firstname' and another field name called 'Lastname'. I would want to have a single column in my GridView which show Fullname and then the firstname and lastname are showed here under an alias. Also, i am binding my GridView using LINQ.So is there a way to create aliaswith LINQ and to use these with GridView ? Would love to have an hint about how i can realize this task.
View 5 RepliesI use the Entity Framework and Linq to Entities with MVC 2.0. When use the DropDownListFor from Html helpers to populate a dropdown that contains an ID from a foreign object, I post the form data but I canīt set the correct relation. Using the debug, I can see the ID retrieved from dropdown at my returned foreign object ID, but I think that I not use the association correctly.

View 1 RepliesI have a view on my database and I am trying to add a new record using the AddTo method but it is not working. I noticed that LinqToEntities is creating the insert statement like this

it didn't give any error. it passed but when I looked at the database, nothing changed. can you provide me the right way.
All I am trying to do is query the database, then get the returned values, so that I can do some calculations. But, I don't understand how to get the values from the database row that is returned, so that I can assign it for usage.
I would like to do something where the logic goes: for the index of [1] (which is just column 1), multiply it by 2. For the index of [2] (which is just column 2), multiply it by 3.
