Question

I have the following table structure which has been imported into the Entity Framework. I need to write a LINQ query where I select the entities of Table1, where a field in Table2 is equal to true, and a field in Table 3 is equal to a specific GUID.

Could someone help with this?

Thanks you.

Try:

from t3 in dataContext.Table3
  where t3.Guidfield == someGuid
  from t2 in t3.Table2
  where t2.Field // boolean field is true
  select t2.Table1;

EDIT: As requested, equivalent lambda expression syntax:

dataContext.Table3.Where(t3 => t3.Guidfield == someGuid)
              .SelectMany(t3 => t3.Table2)
              .Where(t2 => t2.Field)
              .Select(t2.Table1);
