            //var q1 = from a in ADB.GetTable<aClass>()
            //         select a;
            //aClass c = new aClass();

            //dtClasses = reformatDataTable(q1);
        }

I receive the following when I try to get information from the database at (foreach (string name in query))

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException' occurred in System.Data.dll

Additional information: Invalid object name 'student'.

I also get this when I first create the database:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in System.Data.Linq.dll

Additional information: Unable to determine SQL type for 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[WindowsFormsApplication1.Form1+grades]'.

Answer 1

remove the word Name that is what worked for me

[Table("student")]
public class student
