Question

I have a sql query as follows:

  Declare @DivisionNo INT

  SET @DivisionNo = 5117



  SELECT distinct CASE WHEN ISNULL([DivisionNo],'') <> @DivisionNo 
                       THEN @DivisionNo ELSE [DivisionNo] END as DivisionNo

      --,[RecordID]    
      ,[AcctCat]    
      ,[AcctCatDesc]    
      ,[CostCode]    
      ,[CostCodeDesc]

  FROM [dbo].[vw_eSchdl_AcctCat_CostCode]    
  WHERE DivisionNo = @DivisionNo

  UNION

  SELECT distinct CASE WHEN ISNULL([DivisionNo],'') <> @DivisionNo 
                       THEN @DivisionNo ELSE [DivisionNo] END as DivisionNo

      --,[RecordID]    
      ,[AcctCat]    
      ,[AcctCatDesc]    
      ,[CostCode]    
      ,[CostCodeDesc]

  FROM [dbo].[vw_eSchdl_AcctCat_CostCode]    
  WHERE AcctCat not in (
      SELECT [AcctCat]     
      FROM [dbo].[vw_eSchdl_AcctCat_CostCode]
      WHERE DivisionNo = @DivisionNo
  )

How can I duplicate it using linq to sql?

Thanks

There’s no better way to learn than to do it yourself using linqpad if you have a bit of time. You can have a tab with the SQL open and a tab with LINQ and try to duplicate your query results.
