LINQ to Entities how to update a record

Question

Okay, so I\'m new to both EF and LINQ. I have figured out how to INSERT and DELETE but for some reason UPDATE seems to escape my grasp.

Here is a sample of my code:

Answer 1

Just modify one of the returned entities:

Customer c = (from x in dataBase.Customers
             where x.Name == "Test"
             select x).First();
c.Name = "New Name";
dataBase.SaveChanges();

Note, you can only update an entity (something that extends EntityObject, not something that you have projected using something like select new CustomObject{Name = x.Name}
