Question

I have 2 tables: Customer And Customer_Address

I have a function:

public IEnumerable<Customer_Address> ReadAddressForCustomer(int CustomerID)
{
    ProjectServiceForCustomerDataContext DB = new ProjectServiceForCustomerDataContext();
    var CA = (from C in DB.Customer_Addresses
              join cust in DB.Customers
              on C.CustomerID equals cust.ID
              where C.CustomerID == CustomerID
              select new
              {
                  CustomerName=cust.Name,
                  CustomerAddress=C.Address,
                  CustomerTel=C.Telephone
              }).ToList();
    return CA;
}

But the CA is not a IEnumerable(Customer_Address) because it has Customer field (cust.Name)

How can I solve this problem ?

Answer 1

The solution that @Daniel DiPaolo suggest is good one, in which he declares a light class to hold the only properties you want, but I think it is better to use properties rather than fields, as below :

class CustomerInfo   // new class
{
    public string CustomerName{get;set;}
    public string CustomerAddress{get;set;}
    public string CustomerTel{get;set;}
}
