    <p>I have this issue when declaring a <code>IQueryable&lt;T&gt;</code> object inside the:</p> <pre><code>select new { }; </code></pre> <p>part when I want to call a none LINQ method like <code>Tostring()</code> or any other functions that I have as follows:</p> <pre><code>select new { TFPricep = CurrancyHelper.DecimalToCurrency(TFPrice), TFDatep = TFDate.Tostring() }; </code></pre> <p>I get this famous error message that says:</p> <blockquote> <p>LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'foo'.</p> </blockquote> <p>So what happens is that I perform a <code>ToList()</code> and get the data from database and after that I will Have to perform a foreach loop on the list and call functions like <code>ToString()</code> and etc on each list record which has performance issues . as far as I have tested there was no such issue in LINQ to SQL but this issue still exists in <code>Entity Framework</code></p> <p>I wonder if there is any way to call none LINQ methods when querying and prevent performing such for each loop ?</p>

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.
