I have a date picker and time picker in my app and I'm trying to send mail as described here which contains the date as well as the time in the body of the mail. So, Now my question is how to disable the body part of the email as the user shouldn't edit the date or time once it is selected from app. What's the point of security in this ?

Trying to use the await keyword in a LINQ query and I get this: The 'await' operator may only be used in a query expression within the first collection expression of the initial 'from' clause or within the collection expression of a 'join' clause Sample Code: var data = (from id in ids let d = await LoadDataAsync(id) select d); Is it not possible to await something in a LINQ query, or does it need to be structured a different way?
