As I mentioned in the comment above (which I'm repeating here so I can link images), your primary key should not be nullable. There should be a property in your mapping that you can change to set it, although I don't use DbLinq, so I can't give you a screenshot of it directly. Instead, here it is in the LINQ-2-SQL DBML designer (left) and the Entity Framework EDMX designer (right).

I'm not as sure about your deletion problem - that seems like it should work to me. Can you edit your question to include the whole block of your deletion code? As a preliminary guess, you're either creating a new object (instead of loading one) and then trying to delete it, or you're deleting the association without deleting the object.

As a general rule, I never delete from a database when I can avoid it - I just mark inactive. It's much easier to "undelete" that way.

Did you try: address.Patient = currentPatient instead of: currentPatient.Addresses.Add(address)?

PatientAddress address = new PatientAddress();
address.Address = txtAddress.Text;
address.DomicileStatus = cmbDomicileStatus.Text;
address.Patient = currentPatient;

Database.Source.PatientsAddresses.InsertOnSubmit(address);
Database.Source.SubmitChanges();
