Step 3: The complete code of WebForm1.aspx looks like this:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.cs" Inherits="SelectSPSQLQueryEntityApp.WebForm1" %> 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

head id="Head1" runat="server">
   
<style type="text/css">
        .grid {
           
margin-top: 50px;
        }
   
</style>
    <title></title>
</
head>
<
body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <center>
            <div>
                <table>
                    <tr>
                        <td colspan="2" align="center">
                            <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Select Stored Proc with Raw SQL Query via EDM Framework" Font-Bold="true" Font-Size="Large" Font-Names="Verdana"
ForeColor="Maroon"></asp:Label></td>
                    </tr>
                    <tr>
                        <td colspan="2" align="center">
                            <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Select Data" Font-Names="Verdana" Width="213px" BackColor="Orange" Font-Bold="True" OnClick="Button1_Click" /></td>
                    </tr>
                    <tr>
                        <td colspan="2" align="center">
                            <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" CssClass="grid" BackColor="LightGoldenrodYellow" BorderColor="Tan" BorderWidth="1px" CellPadding="2"
ForeColor="Black" GridLines="None">
                                <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="PaleGoldenrod" />
                                <FooterStyle BackColor="Tan" />
                                <HeaderStyle BackColor="Tan" Font-Bold="True" />
                                <PagerStyle BackColor="PaleGoldenrod" ForeColor="DarkSlateBlue" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
                                <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="DarkSlateBlue" ForeColor="GhostWhite" />
                                <SortedAscendingCellStyle BackColor="#FAFAE7" />
                                <SortedAscendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#DAC09E" />
                                <SortedDescendingCellStyle BackColor="#E1DB9C" />
                                <SortedDescendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#C2A47B" />
                            </asp:GridView>
                        </td>
                    </tr>
                </table>
            </div>
        </center>
    </form>
</
body>
</
html>

Step 4: The complete code of WebForm1.aspx.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using SelectSPSQLQueryEntityApp.Models;
namespace SelectSPSQLQueryEntityApp
{
   
public partial class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
       
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
        }
       
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
           
var query = objContext.tblEmployees.SqlQuery("[dbo].[SelectData]").ToList();
            GridView1.DataSource = query;GridView1.DataBind();
        }
        #region Instance MembersCompanyContext objContext = new CompanyContext();
        #endregion
    }
}

Step 5: The output of the application looks like this:
