    <p><strong>In short:</strong> This relationship type between <code>Student</code> and <code>Class</code> is called <strong>many to many relationship</strong> in EF terminology.</p> <blockquote> <p>Entity framework handles tables participating in Many to Many relationship in a nice manner. If the junction table (sometimes called bridge table, association table, link table, etc) only consists of the foreign keys and no other columns, then that table is abstracted by EF and the two sides get a navigational property exposing a collection of the other side.</p> </blockquote> <p>What you would need is to generate a Entity Model for the above tables first or define your code first structure like in the following post - <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/234606/Creating-a-Many-To-Many-Mapping-Using-Code-First" rel="noreferrer">Creating a Many To Many Mapping Using Code First</a>.</p> <p>Basically, depending on your structure you need to set the method <code>OnModelCreating</code> appropriate to the relationships in your classes.</p> <pre><code>protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder) </code></pre> <p>Depending on your <strong>query needs</strong> you will find it informative to look at the following references:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://smehrozalam.wordpress.com/2010/06/29/entity-framework-queries-involving-many-to-many-relationship-tables/" rel="noreferrer">Queries involving many to many relationship tables</a></li> <li><a href="http://weblogs.asp.net/zeeshanhirani/archive/2008/08/21/many-to-many-mappings-in-entity-framework.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Many To Many Mappings in Entity Framework</a></li> <li><a href="http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/adodotnetentityframework/thread/db6df279-a925-443c-a616-7375867409a6/" rel="noreferrer">Many-to-Many Relationships with Entity Framework</a></li> </ul>

    2. COIEnumerable, ICollection, and IList (generally, any type with an I prefix) are just interfaces. They let you expose what your class will do, but unlike if you inherit a class, interfaces do not provide you a default implementation.

    3. COGenerally speaking about collections, an IList is an ICollection that can be accessed by index.

Guidance
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.
