Hi Gustav,

Thank you.

That info arrived just in time! :) I have started preparation to VS2008
transition today, and I do plan to start using LINQ as much as possible in
the applications I'm developing...

BTW, I think another big thing to consider is "RESTful Web Services" -

http://www.xfront.com/REST-Web-Services.html

This concept is not from MS originally but MS released features to develop
such services in VS2008...

This REST and Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA) and RESTful web services
could be a real breakthrough for many useful and easy to handle generic way
web services to appear...

Hi all

And here is what looks like a clever (and free) tool for SQL freaks to get a
jumpstart with LINQ in Visual Studio:

Hi all

It looks like MS is thinking of Visual Studio as a major tool for
controlling SQL Server.
An interesting article by William Sheldon in SQL Server Magazine tells more,
indeed about the SQLMetal tool:

<quote>
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Language Integrated Query (LINQ) queries
convert Visual Basic and C# code into T-SQL*based database calls, which are
executed against SQL Server. Your Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 projects will
need to target the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 to use LINQ. SQLMetal
generates the necessary data entity and DataContext object as either a .vb
or .cs source file.

Pick article:
LINQ to Your SQL Server Data 

A registration is needed but that is free.
