copied!<p>For displaying the user's name if you use membership and you don't want to include the aspnet_Users in your dbml:</p> <pre><code>... LastPostUserId = posts.OrderByDescending(p=>p.PostId).Take(1).Select(p=> Membership.GetUser(p.UserId)) ... </code></pre> <p>Another change to make your posted sample a bit better is to add the orderbydescending in the posts variable: Then you can drop the 4 times repeated OrderByDescending from the select clause:</p> <pre><code>from forum in Forums let posts = ForumPosts.Where(p => p.ForumThreads.ForumId.Equals(forum.ForumId)).OrderByDescending(p=>p.PostId) select new { Forum = forum.Title, Description = forum.Description, Topics = forum.ForumThreads.Count(), Posts = posts.Count(), LastPostId = posts.Take(1).Select(p=>p.PostId), LastPostThreadId = posts.Take(1).Select(p=>p.ThreadId), LastPostUserId = posts.Take(1).Select(p=>p.UserId), LastPostTime = posts.Take(1).Select(p=>p.CreateDate) } </code></pre> <p>Or even cleaner:</p> <pre><code>from forum in Forums let posts = ForumPosts.Where(p => p.ForumThreads.ForumId.Equals(forum.ForumId)) let lastPost = posts.OrderByDescending(p=>p.PostId).Take(1) select new { Forum = forum.Title, Description = forum.Description, Topics = forum.ForumThreads.Count(), Posts = posts.Count(), LastPostId = lastPost.PostId, LastPostThreadId = lastPost.ThreadId, LastPostUserId = lastPost.UserId, LastPostUserName = Membership.GetUser(lastPost.UserId), LastPostTime = lastPost.CreateDate } </code></pre> <p>Test this code when there are no last posts tho, I think it might throw an error if Take(1) is null..</p>
