My workplace doesn't use identity columns or GUIDs for primary keys. Instead, we retrieve "next IDs" from a table as needed, and increment the value for each insert. Unfortunatly for me, LINQ-TO-SQL appears to be optimized around using identity columns. So I need to query and update the "NextId" table whenever I perform an insert. Fo...

I'm going to build a little system for personal use, and I want it to save data to a database. The language is going to be C#, and so I'd like to use this opportunity to get my head around LINQ to SQL.

I am basically looking to bind a search query to a gridview which is nice, but this must be done by a users input query (sort of like a search function).

It suffices to say that it returns a connection string and I have to use it. I want my LINQ to SQL DataContext to use this so I removed all...
