“Cannot call methods on DateTime”, and other limitations

Question

Does anyone know of a definitive list of LINQ to SQL query limitations that are not trapped at compile time, along with (where possible) workarounds for the limitations?

Answer 1

Marc Gravell's answer is comprehensively right.

I just wanted to add this detail for Date Logic (and string comparisons). Since you are using LinqToSql, you can take advantage of the SqlMethods, to do those things you are used to doing in the database.
