LinqPad and ADO.NET dataset
Options
I really like what I see already in LinqPad but have a question. From researching, it appears this cannot be done but thought I would ask anyway. My application stores user data in an XML file which is loaded into an ADO.Net dataset (XSD file) for data access and update using Linq-to-Dataset. Is it possible to to access/query data in the dataset in LinqPad? I prefer not to query the XML file. Thanks

Have you considered adding a reference to the assembly that contains the typed dataset? Then you can query the dataset as using the LINQ-to-DataSet extensions.

Using your suggestion, I got it to work. This tool is so awesome!!!

I'm trying to do this also--use Linq to dataset from an .xsd file. I don't see how to do this, though. I see Linq to SQL, EF, and EF/DbContext....? How do you choose Linq to Dataset?
