I have the following LINQ code:
docTypes = (from c in context.Citizenships join
            cdt in context.Citizenship_Document_Types 
                       on c.Country_Code equals cdt.Country_Code
            from cd in context.Citizenship_Documents
                              .Where(cd => cd.Citizenship_Id == c.Citizenship_ID)
   ...
            
           
          
            
            I currently have many linq expressions nested within foreach loops ... kind of defeating the point of using linq!
What I'm trying to achieve is a simple blog model (blog posts which have multiple tags and are associated with multiple categories... that's all).
I'm looking for a way to condense all my linq expressions into a single expr...
            
           
          
            
            I am always finding myself creating linq expressions that still use nested foreach loops heavily. Below is a simple example of what I'm talking about, and I'd really appreciate it if someone on here can show me how to condense this low-efficiency code into a single linq expression?
The database context (db) has three tables: Blog, Tag, ...

                where
                    SqlMethods.Like(funds.Name, searchTerm)

We are having a very 'exotic' problem with the linq to sql data context class. We have a n-tiered architectured structured like this: We have 3 classes MotherClass, ChildClass, ChildChildrenClass
MotherClass looks something like this:

            I have a Client entity and PostCode entity in Linq to SQL model. The Clients table in database contains client_postcode column which is a FK column to postalcode column in PostCode table, which is a varchar column primary key for PostCode table.
When updating Client, in my code I do this 
        // postcode
        updating.PostCode =...

MasterProjectID       SubProjectID

            Hi,
I am using ASP.NET Dynamic Data Entities project to generate a web application for my database. I was wondering what is the easiest way to restrict the allowed values for a column without changing the database structure to make that column a foreign key or modifying the database in any way.
For example. I have a table called Assets...
            
           
          
            
            In a LINQ To SQL query, how can I apply a Round function on a column in my output?
My query is 
  From s In oRecelDB.Items Where s.BIN = 'ABC' Select s.ITEMNMBR, s.QUANTITY
and the results are
ITEM I   35.0000
ITEM 2   45.0000
ITEM 3   23.0000
I want to remove the .00000 from the Second column value. How to do that in my query?
