C#
Visual Basic
How to use it

from.Note
This refactoring can only be used to convert LINQ queries expressed with query syntax and not method syntax.
Press Ctrl+. or click the screwdriver
icon in the margin of the code file.
Select Convert to 'foreach'. Or, select Preview changes to open the Preview Changes dialog, and then select Apply.
Note
For C#, the code generated by these refactorings uses either an explicit type or var for the iteration variable of the foreach loop. The type in the generated code, explicit or implicit, depends on the code-style settings that are in scope. These particular code-style settings are configured at the machine level under Tools > Options > Text Editor > C# > Code Style > General > 'var' preferences, or at the solution level in an EditorConfig file. If you change a code-style setting in Options, reopen the code file for the changes to take effect.
