Problem with adding record using LINQ to SQL

Answer 1

The correct syntax is:

context.Meetings.InsertOnSubmit(meeting);

Answer 2

You need to add a System.Data.Linq using statement.

Answer 3

You should not be getting a debugger error. You should be getting a compile-time error as there is not a Table.Add method. Some books/blogs (cf. especially Scott Guthrie's LINQ to SQL tutorial) that went to press before LINQ to SQL was finalized will use this syntax but it was replaced by Table.InsertOnSubmit. Replace your code by the following:

context.Meetings.InsertOnSubmit(meeting);

Here is the announcement that Add was renamed to InsertOnSubmit: LINQ: "Add" renamed to "InsertOnSubmit"
