I often get in a position when I need to know why my LINQ doesnt work as intended…
I use object collections and extensions.
I dont want spend more than couple of minutes on it. LINQ supposed to make developer’s life easier not harder.
I hoped VS 2010 will have it fixed but I now use RC and it still doesnt let me type LINQ and check what is going on… Says as before “Expression cannot contain lambda expressions”…
Is there some add-on for Visual Studio so I can quickly and effectively run ad-hoc queries and find out what is going on and where I am wrong?
It’s not a VS plugin, but it’s free and it’s awesome: LinqPad

You can run whatever linq or code snippet in general, just give it a look, it’s an incredibly useful tool, for linq and more.
