I am using a path comparison to find any children tags which works well when there is only 1 tag selected. This is my code for when multiples tags are selected but it is not working. Can you point me in the right direction?
Single Tag Selection (working)

Is it wrong? Please suggest me correct way.

Now when I go to iterate through the collection(see example below), I get an error that says "Name "x" is not declared. For Each x in Infos It's like VB.NET doesn't understand that Infos is a collection of anonymous types created by LINQ and wants me to declare "x" as some type.

How to return the weighted Percentage for each category with LINQ? Weight is the Value.
I've read that it's unwise to use ToUpper and ToLower to perform case-insensitive string comparisons, but I see no alternative when it comes to LINQ-to-SQL. The ignoreCase and CompareOptions arguments of String.Compare are ignored by LINQ-to-SQL (if you're using a case-sensitive database, you get a case-sensitive comparison even if you ask for a case-insensitive comparison). Is ToLower or ToUpper the best option here? Is one better than the other? I thought I read somewhere that ToUpper was better, but I don't know if that applies here. (I'm doing a lot of code reviews and everyone is using ToLower.)

Dim query = From o In myContainer.MyObjects Select o.MyStringProperty Distinct
Dim myProperties As List(Of String) = query.ToList????? 'no way!!!'
"query" type is IEnumerable(Of String)
I tried to use the query directly as a DataSource of a (infragistic) combobox, but it throws me NullReferenceException, so I decided to convert it to a listof strings, to be a more "classical" datasource.
Dim values As List(Of String) = query.AsQueryable().ToList()
does not work either: Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of System.Linq.IQueryable(Of String))' cannot be converted to 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)'.

GOAL: Bind nested ListViews to LINQ generated iQueryable of anonymous type. I want to use LINQ because you can use GroupBy and bind the nested ListView to the 'it' keyword.
SETUP: I have groups of sets of conditions. Each set of conditions is stored in the BillingCodes table. Each group of BillingCodes is stored in the BillingGroups table.
I have a custom object that stores the ID, Name, and NumCodes for each BillingGroup that the user has chosen.I have a collection of these objects called GroupsList that has a list of the groups that the user has chosen.
Problem 1: I can iterate through GroupsList and grab all the IDs. How do I translate the SQL 'WHERE ID IN(a string of comma delineated IDs)' for LINQ to SQL? Is that the best way to do that?
Problem 2: Once I have the list of BillingGroups I need to iterate through each group. For each group, I need to iterate through the BillingCodes. For each BillingCode I need to generate a WHERE clause that has all of the conditions in the BillingCode. I propose something like so:
for each BillingGroup in BillingGroups
for each BillingCode in BillingGroup.BillingCodes
where1 = "..."
next
next
Problem 3: Here's the part where I don't have a clue. I need to dynamically create a query in LINQ to SQL. Keep in mind that I don't know how many groups there'll be or how many codes are in each group.
There are 2 tables:
**transactions**

I have a query that can be summarised in SQL as follows;
Select
S.StockCode
From
StockToCheck As S
[Code]....
Where the S var is a list of strings. This gives the error 'S' is not declared and points to the S in the function call / join (GetPOSStock). So it does not seem possible to do this in Linq, can anyone confirm?
I have these objects:[code]Using LINQ I need to take a List(Of MakeInfo) and a List(Of ModelInfo) and aggregate the StockInfo from ModelInfo into the List(Of MakeInfo).So for each MakeInfo I will have a total count of all stock where MakeInfo.Name = ModelInfo.Make, and also a minimum price.I think it's going to be something like this, but I'm having trouble accessing the nested object and not sure if it's going to be possible with a single query.[code]
View 2 RepliesI have 4 string lists as follows
Dim input_list As New List(Of String) Dim input_POS As New List(Of String) Dim trigger_list As New List(Of String) Dim trigger_POS As New List(Of String)
I want to compare the contents of the input list (containing words (e.g., want, the) etc. to the ones of the trigger list (containign again words) and if a same entry (i.e. word) get the POS for both input word and trigger word from the relevant lists and put them into a property list. For example
input list (want, the, right)trigger list(want, there, wait)input list POS (verb, article, adjective)trigger list POS (verb, pronoun, verb)
Output property list (want:verb, want:verb) (only want is common between input and trigger list). Then I need to conduct a test between the two property items for similarites. If they are exactly the same, the code should output a confirmation "i.e., Yes" into a textbox. If not the code should output a "No" plus the contents of the property list into a textbox.

I've created a small WPF app in VB9 to catalog our sizable DVD collection. This exercise has been more about learn programming than the need to have a movie database app, but I digress.The SQL database I created has a field for "Genre" that does not have an entry for all the movies in our collection. As such, when I run the method that filters the movie listing by "Genre" the compiler throws the "StrongTypingException was unhandled" error stating "The value for column 'Genre' in table 'Movies' is DBNull.".
I now understand where the DBNull problem comes from and have been searching for several hours to find a VB solution that converts the DBNull fields to strings on the fly during the LINQ query. I've found many solutions people have tried but, since I'm quite new to all this, none of them have worked for me. Pasted below is the method that throws the exception.

Is there a way to convert a string into a linq query? Searching for those words brings up tons of stuff unrelated to what I'm trying to do..For instance, this works, of course...
Dim lstMyQuery = (From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Apple" Select item)
But somehow I want to do this:
Dim strQuery = "From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = " & CHR(34) & "Apples" & CHR(34) & " Select item"
Dim lstMyQuery = (Somehow run/convert strQuery as a query)
The reason is strQuery will be different each time depending on what the user has selected earlier in the program.R if lstMyQuery is already a collection, is there a way to add to it?
Dim lstMyQuery = (From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Apples" Select item)
(this obviously doesn't work, but it's basically what I want to do...)
lstMyQuery.Add(From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Oranges" Select item)

I know that LINQ queries are deferred and only executed when the query is enumerated, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly when that happens.Certainly in a For Each loop, the query would be enumerated.What's the rule of thumb to follow? I don't want to accidentally enumerate over my query twice if it's a huge result.
For example, does System.Linq.Enumerable.First enumerate over the whole query? I ask for performance reasons. I want to pass a LINQ result set to an ASP.NET MVC view, and I also want to pass the First element separately. Enumerating over the results twice would be painful.It would be great to turn on some kind of flag that alerts me each time a LINQ query is enumerated. That way I could catch scenarios when I accidentally enumerate twice.
I've got the following ADO.NET Entity Framework Entity Data Model:I want to find all the Policyholders with both a Service of a given Id and also a Keyword of a given Status.
This LINQ Does Not Work:
Dim ServicesId As Integer = ...
Dim KeywordStatus As Integer = ...
Dim FoundPolicyholders = From p As Policyholder In db.PolicyholderSet.Include("Keywords").Include("Services") _
Where p.Services.Id = ServicesId _
And p.Keywords.Status = KeywordStatus _
Select p
The Where clause cannot search the p.Services and p.Keywords EntityCollections in that way.
