You
can create that easily with linq queries, that's the purpose of
querying
on
top of a normalized model:
var q = from c in nw.Customers
join orders o in nw.Orders on c.CustomerID equals
o.CustomerID
select new { o.OrderID, c.CompanyName};
Correct....but this is a collection of anonymous types...it would be
much nicer if they were explicitly named....can you use named types
It is also possible to do something like
thegrid.DataSource = nw.Orders;
thegrid.DataBind();
And then bind columns to specific fields in either Orders or Customers.
Am I the only one here who thinks that the underlying type of a grid
which displays a list of items should be independent of which columns
are being displayed?
