Question

I have a LINQ query I am retrieving, although in its context how would I sort the output, I have tried sortby etc. but to no avail

    DataClasses1DataContext db = new DataClasses1DataContext();
    var returnall = from p in db.Orders
                    select p.ShipName;

Answer 1

var returnall = from p in db.Orders
                orderby p.ShipName
                select p.ShipName;

A handy reference for various LINQ functions can be found on the MSDN samples page.
