Answer 1

The main problem I see with your code is the lines like this:

qryResults.Where(w => w.AL.CompareTo(vbVal) >= 0);

You start with qryResults, compute a .Where(...) but you don't re-assign the query back to qryResults.

Try this:

qryResults = qryResults.Where(w => w.AL.CompareTo(vbVal) >= 0);

Although this doesn't explain why you're getting no results back. That'll be a question you should tackle when you get the code right.
