The name 'whatever' does not exist in the current context

cmgray

We're using EF code first and I can successfully connect LINQPad using the DbContext from our assembly. The connection works and it generates the model just fine. However, when I try to do any queries, such as Whatever.Take(100) it returns the "does not exist in current context" error.

Any ideas?

Do you see your entities in the schema explorer? What happens if you right-click an entity and choose one of the querying options, such as "Foo.Take(100)"?

I am having the same issue. I tried right clicking and doing a take(100) and it gives the same error. I have a screen shot i can email.

I've got this problem too. Using 4.51.03 Premium. Schema explorer is populated and can be expanded. None of the right click options ie. Take(100) work either. I use the dll from the bin directory of my app so finding dependencies should be okay. Intellisense has the db types but not the actual databases. I'm using localdb BTW
