How to use ToString() method to convert an integer to string inside LINQ?

I resolved this issue by directly writing MySQl query inside C# as below string queryTemplate = @"select inv. * from invoices as inv where userID = '123' and date like '%abc%'"; List totalSearch = context. ExecuteStoreQuery(queryTemplate).ToList().

In EF 4 you can use SqlFunctions.StringConvert.

Does EF4 comes by default with . Net Framework 4? I have .

Net Framework 4, but still I get below error "The specified method 'System. String StringConvert(System. Nullable`1System.

Double)' on the type 'System.Data.Objects.SqlClient. SqlFunctions' cannot be translated into a LINQ to Entities store expression. " Please note I am using MySQL as database and not SQL Server.. – Harshal Nov 25 '10 at 10:25 EF4 can connect to MySQL see this article: dev.mysql.Com/doc/refman/5.4/en/… – Stefan P.

Nov 25 '10 at 10:33 Ok.. But does EF4 comes with . Net framework 4.0? How can I check which is the entity framework used in my app... I am using .

Net Framework 4.0, if it comes with EF4 then I should not get above error. – Harshal Nov 25 '10 at 10:37 Try this: query = query. Where(q => SqlFunctions.

StringConvert((double)q. Invoicenum). Contains(filtertext)); let me know if it works for you.

Harshal, the issue is the SqlFunctions. StringConvert is for MS SQL, not for MySQL. You can try convert the results to Enumerable and then query on it.

Example: using (DatabaseEntities db = new DatabaseEntities()) { var list = from l in db.Customers.AsEnumerable() orderby l. CompanyName select new SelectListItem { Value = l.CustomerID.ToString(), Text = l. CompanyName }; return list.ToList(); } Note the line: l in db.Customers.AsEnumerable() is converting the results to Enumerable, then you can use .toString() on it.

You can adapt this to your needs.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
