Question

BOOK_ID (PK & FK) PRICE_ON_START PRICE_PLUS_COST PRICE_PLUS_EXTRA PRICE_TOTAL BOOK_ID (PK) USER_ID (FK) GROUP PHONE LOCAL_ID USER_ID (PK) NAME SURNAME SEX ISACTIVE Hello there I have got problem because I don't know how to get required records. So as you can see guys I have three tables and my question is how to get for particular USER_ID all records from Table1 where GROUP number in second table is for ex == 4. It means that for each of the 12 groups I have different values in table1 BOOK_ID in the first and second table is the same number of course. I'm trying something like that but this not working :( var collection1 = from a in table1 from b in table2 where a.book_id == b.book_id && a.user_id == 1 select b and now I would like to do something like that var result = from b in table2 from c in collection1 where b.book_id == c.book_id && b.group == 6 select b? Please help...

Hi Nockolas Consider three tables are: Book Book_User User var result = (from b in Book join bu in Book_User on b. BOOK_ID equals bu. BOOK_ID where bu. USER_ID == your userID && bu. GROUP== your GROUP number select new { bu. USER_ID  b. BOOK_ID  b. PRICE_PLUS_COST ).ToList();

Hi Nickolas  Consider three tables are: Book Book_User User If you want to get no of records for particular User ID : var result = (from b in Book join bu in Book_User on b.book_id equals bu.book_id where bu.user_id == your_userID select new { bu.user_id b.book_name b.price_cost).ToList(); Result: userid book_name cost 1 test 100 2 test2 200 If you want to get all users associated with books : var result = from u in User group u by new { u.user_id } into groupRes join bu in Book_User on groupRes.FirstOrDefault().user_id equals bu.user_id select new { User_ID = groupRes.FirstOrDefault().user_id User_Name = groupRes.FirstOrDefault().name TotalBooks = groupRes.Count() }; Result: User_ID User_Name TotalBooks 1 test_name 10 2 name2 12

Hi If you think that your question is solved please accept the answer is correct. Solution for next question: Here I am using EntityFramework to update records. public ActionResult Update_Books( ViewModelBook model ) { List tempList = model.books; // Using entities using(DBEntiteies test = new DBEntiteies()) { foreach(var temp in tempList) { var book = (from record in test where record.name == temp.name select record).FirstOrDefault(); // Assign all properties to entity object book.name = temp.name; test.savechanges(); } } } And one more thing you also need Book ID(Unique ID) for fetching unique from tables. From your code I am not seeing any ID properties because it is required when we use Entityframework. If you have any other unique properties then no problem.

Thank you very much I appreciate. I have next small problem it would be amazing if u will have time to help. I'm trying to update many records in my books collection. I'm passing list of books to view and finally I've got in my View: Html.BeginForm() {foreach (var model in Model.Books) @Html.TextBoxFor(model=>model.name) @Html.TextBoxFor(model=>model.surname) @Html.TextBoxFor(model=>model.title) } ViewModelBook List books {get; set;} List books {get; set;} .... controller should be of course marked [httppost] but how should looks logic of controller? public ActionResult Update_Books(List books) ??? { ???? } Thanks a lot :)
