Question

I have a simple entity framework query in an MVC3 app, like so

var instances= db.Instances.Include(c => c.CompanyLead).Include(c => c.SalesLead).Include(c => c.Customer);

        return View(instances);

This query works fine and essentially returns all instances. However, I need to filter this query and basically add the phrase:

var instances= db.Instances.Include(c => c.CompanyLead).Include(c => c.SalesLead).Include(c => c.Customer)WHERE InstanceType = x

I don’t want to revert to an ObjectQuery class with a DB Context object. I thought I would be able to alter this query. Am i wrong?

Answer 1

var instances = db.Instances.Where(c => c.InstanceType ==
“x”).Include(c => c.CompanyLead).Include(c =>c.SalesLead).Include(c
=>c.Customer)
