It really gives a wonderful overview of what happens  behind the scenes when you write a LINQ statement, and at the same time introduces the user to the new features of .net framework 3.5.

I liked it soo much that I have downloaded it and would be sharing it with other team members,

Thanks for the presentation,

Cheers,

in my handheld apps I use linq and a binary serializer plus some classes that share an interface to be a kind of "mini-database"

beeing able to combine LINQ with Generics and the typed collections is just sweet!

and on the CE devices i can store most of the data and just keep a small list in-memory to re-load the object when needed.

I have about 80 mobile devices in use right now...  and the customer just keeps asking us to pack in more features.

Learning from this video is much easier then browsing msdn documents.

 Dim Contacts = From C In PracticeDB.Contacts _ 
Select New With {.ID = C.ID, .Name = C.Name}

 Dim Query = New With {.ID = 1, .Name = "Kaushal"}

In above both query it has "ID" and "Name" property of anonymous type.

In above, How to specify "ID" property as Decimal? While selecting the statement from DataContext ID appears as Decimal because the type specified is "Numeric" in SQL Database.

So far I found a way by parsing data type to integer in first query as following:

Dim Contacts = From C In PracticeDB.Contacts _ 
Select New With {.ID = Integer.Parse(C.ID), .Name = C.Name}

 Dim Query = New With {.ID = 1, .Name = "Kaushal"}

I am wondering if there is any way to specify within WITH Statement.

I love how it effectively tricks the viewer into learning all these otherwise-mindblowing programming concepts with something that appears very approachable.
