public System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery<System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord> Select (string projection, params System.Data.Objects.ObjectParameter[] parameters);
member this.Select : string * System.Data.Objects.ObjectParameter[] -> System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery<System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord>
Public Function Select (projection As String, ParamArray parameters As ObjectParameter()) As ObjectQuery(Of DbDataRecord)

Examples

This example creates a new ObjectQuery<T> whose results are data records that contain the ProductID fields of the results of this query.

int productID = 900;
using (AdventureWorksEntities context =
    new AdventureWorksEntities())
{
    string queryString = @"SELECT VALUE product FROM
        AdventureWorksEntities.Products AS product
        WHERE product.ProductID > @productID";

    ObjectQuery<Product> productQuery1 =
        new ObjectQuery<Product>(queryString,
            context, MergeOption.NoTracking);

    productQuery1.Parameters.Add(new ObjectParameter("productID", productID));

    ObjectQuery<DbDataRecord> productQuery2 =
        productQuery1.Select("it.ProductID");

    foreach (DbDataRecord result in productQuery2)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{0}", result["ProductID"]);
    }
}

Remarks

Select applies the projection specified by the projection parameter. The ObjectQuery<T> returned by the Select method is always a row type of DbDataRecord. Use the SelectValue method to return values that are simple types, entity types, or complex types. For more information, see LINQ to Entities.

When a navigation property is included in the projection, the query results include a collection of nested DbDataRecord objects.
