Steps for a beginner to run very basic linq to sql query using Linqpad

Question

Trying to learn Linq using LinqPad and getting frustated with how to start on it. Let\'s say I want to write a C# Expression and a C# statment where I have a table in SQL server

Answer 1

Just wanted to add - LINQ pad pluralizes - I did not know this and it drove me crazy for a good fifteen minutes

I was trying to select from a table called DentalApplication

    DentalApplication.Where(a=> a.PackageID > 0)

Gave me this error

    'LINQPad.User.DentalApplication' does not contain a definition for 'Where'

Changed it to

    DentalApplications.Where(a=> a.PackageID > 0)

and it worked
