Step 4: The complete code of webform1.aspx looks like this:

            <table>
                <tr>
                    <td colspan="2" align="center">
                        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Select Data with LINQ using XSD (DataSet)"

                </tr>
            </table>
        </div>
    </center>
    </form>
</body>
</
html>

Step 5: The complete code of webform1.aspx.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
namespace
LINQtoXSDSelectApp
{
    public partial class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
        }
        protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            EmployeeDS.EmployeeDataTable objEmployeeTable = objAdapter.GetData();
            var query = from r in objEmployeeTable select new
            {
                FirstName = r.FirstName, LastName = r.LastName, Age = r.Age };
            GridView1.DataSource = query;
            GridView1.DataBind();
        }
        #region Instance MembersEmployeeDSTableAdapters.EmployeeTableAdapter
        objAdapter = new EmployeeDSTableAdapters.EmployeeTableAdapter();
        #endregion
    }
}

Step 6: The output of the application looks like this:

Step 7: The select output operation of the application looks like this:

Step 1: Create a new webform project

Step 2: Add a new XSD dataset item

Step 3: Add a new employee table to the dataset:

Step 4: The complete code of webform1.aspx looks like this:

                </tr>
            </table>
        </div>
    </center>
    </form>
</body>
</

Step 5: The complete code of webform1.aspx.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
namespace

        protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(TextBox1.Text))
            {
                Label3.Text = "Please Enter Some Values";
                Label3.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
            }
           
else
            {
                objAdapter.Delete(int.Parse(TextBox1.Text));
                EmployeeDS.EmployeeDataTable objEmployeeTable = objAdapter.GetData();
                var query = from r in objEmployeeTable select new
                {

        }
        #region Instance MembersEmployeeDSTableAdapters.EmployeeTableAdapter
        objAdapter = new EmployeeDSTableAdapters.EmployeeTableAdapter();
        #endregion
    }
}

Step 6: The output of the application looks like this:

Step 7: The data deleted output of the application looks like this:
