Question

The problem I am having is displaying records from a database which are no more than 14 days old. The idea is that someone would create an advert and it would be displayed for two weeks only.

I am New to LinQ and finding the syntax for such a query difficult to comprehend.

The following query has been created to display all the adverts shown below.

var Adverts = from m in db. Adverts
 select m;

Below is what I am trying to achieve.

var Adverts = from m in db. Adverts
where m.date  == DateTime.Now 

---- Unsure of how to input a date range ------

 select m;

Any advice welocme.

Answer 1

var now = DateTime.Now;
var twoWeeksAgo = now.AddDays(-14);
var adverts = 
    from advert in db. Adverts
    where advert.date >= twoWeeksAgo && advert.date <= now
    select advert;
