    <p>I have refactored out a generic CSV builder for List using lambda expressions to access the correct values</p> <pre><code>public static string ToCsv&lt;TModel&gt;(this List&lt;TModel&gt; list, string delimiter, string lineBreak, string valueWrap, params Expression&lt;Func&lt;TModel, object&gt;&gt;[] expressions) { var sb = new StringBuilder(); var headers = expressions.Select(m =&gt; String.Format("{0}{1}{0}", valueWrap, GetPropertyName(m))).ToArray(); sb.Append(String.Format("{0}{1}", String.Join(delimiter, headers), lineBreak)); foreach (var listItem in list) { var values = expressions.Select(m =&gt; String.Format("{0}{1}{0}", valueWrap, m.Compile()(listItem))).ToArray(); sb.Append(String.Format("{0}{1}", String.Join(delimiter, values), lineBreak)); } return sb.ToString(); } </code></pre> <p>This works well, however because I am trying to move this into some common code for several projects across several servers to access. I cannot reference the <code>System.Web.Mvc</code> assembly</p> <p>Is there a good way to access the <code>DisplayName</code> Attribute and if that doesnot exist, access the variable name?</p> <p>My current attempt access the <code>((MemberExpression) expression.Body).Member.Name</code> however it will not work if it has to convert a value to string. (ie passing an int and implicitly converting)</p> <p>A second attempt of iterating over the attributes did not work for inner class (ie <code>model</code> => <code>model.innerClass.property</code>)</p>

    1. COFurther Info: After having no solution, I went ahead and used the `System.Web.Mvc.ExpressionHelper` however I have ran into another issue. Without the HtmlHelper and its ViewData, It will not get the DisplayName Attribute of a property. Any Ideas?

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).
