This topic shows how to navigate relationships through navigation properties (references). The example gets all the orders which ShipCity is "Lyon". The Order.Customer navigation property is used to get the Customer object.

To run the code in this example, you need to create a new Telerik OpenAccess Domain Model based on the Northwind database. |
The following code is the LINQ example.

using ( EntitiesModel dbContext = new EntitiesModel() ) { var query = from order in dbContext.Orders where order.ShipCity == "Lyon" select new { order.OrderID, order.Customer }; foreach ( var item in query) { Console.WriteLine( "OrderId: {0}, CustomerId: {1}, CustomerCountry: {2}", item.OrderID, item.Customer.CustomerID, item.Customer.Country ); } } |

Using dbContext As New EntitiesModel() Dim query = From order In dbContext.Orders Where order.ShipCity = "Lyon" Select New With {Key order.OrderID, Key order.Customer} For Each item In query Console.WriteLine("OrderId: {0}, CustomerId: {1}, CustomerCountry: {2}", item.OrderID, item.Customer.CustomerID, item.Customer.Country) Next item End Using |
