Linq-to-entities - Include() method not loading

Question

If I use a join, the Include() method is no longer working, eg:

from e in dc.Entities.Include(\"Properties\")
join i in dc.Items on e.ID equals i.Member.ID
w         


        

Answer 1

Try the more verbose way to do more or less the same thing obtain the same results, but with more datacalls:

var mydata = from e in dc.Entities
             join i in dc.Items 
                 on e.ID equals i.Member.ID 
             where (i.Collection.ID == collectionID) 
             select e;

foreach (Entity ent in mydata) {
    if(!ent.Properties.IsLoaded) { ent.Properties.Load(); }
}

Do you still get the same (unexpected) result?

EDIT: Changed the first sentence, as it was incorrect. Thanks for the pointer comment!
