    <p>I have been using C# with Unity3d for a few years now, but am just starting with .NET programming. I get the error:</p> <p>Cannot implicitly convert type '<code>System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable&lt;URL&gt;</code>' to '<code>System.Collections.Generic.List&lt;URL&gt;</code>'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)</p> <p>Here is my code:</p> <pre><code>namespace TestBrowserHistory { public class Test1 { public Test1() { } static void Main() { InternetExplorer myClass = new InternetExplorer(); List&lt;URL&gt; calledList = myClass.GetHistory(); Console.WriteLine("Hello!"); Console.WriteLine(calledList[1]); Console.ReadLine(); } } } public class InternetExplorer { // List of URL objects public List&lt;URL&gt; URLs { get; set; } public IEnumerable&lt;URL&gt; GetHistory() { // Initiate main object UrlHistoryWrapperClass urlhistory = new UrlHistoryWrapperClass(); // Enumerate URLs in History UrlHistoryWrapperClass.STATURLEnumerator enumerator = urlhistory.GetEnumerator(); // Iterate through the enumeration while (enumerator.MoveNext()) { // Obtain URL and Title string url = enumerator.Current.URL.Replace('\'', ' '); // In the title, eliminate single quotes to avoid confusion string title = string.IsNullOrEmpty(enumerator.Current.Title) ? enumerator.Current.Title.Replace('\'', ' ') : ""; // Create new entry URL U = new URL(url, title, "Internet Explorer"); // Add entry to list URLs.Add(U); } // Optional enumerator.Reset(); // Clear URL History urlhistory.ClearHistory(); return URLs; } } </code></pre> <p>Thanks for any help!</p>

    1. COHi! Maybe you could be a little more specific : where are you getting this error? We don't need the source of your whole project for such a compilation error.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
