  Rumor would have it that Microsoft has stopped development of LINQ, or is planning to do so. Is this true? I could never recommend LINQ to a customer if I thought Microsoft wasn't going to be supporting it five years from now.

    Fortunately, LINQ is not dead. LINQ is living on, and is the interface for MS's replacement for LINQ2SQL, called Entity Framework. I've programmed against both interfaces and actually prefer EF - now that they have a new, working version out. ;-) LINQ however, works over more than just your database. I regularly use LINQ processing on arrays and even strings. I can do things in a line of code that a) is clear and understandable and b) would otherwise require me to write and test an entire subroutine. You do need to understand that LINQ - like anything else complicated - takes CPU time. Not much, and I've not noticed any performance hit, but I wouldn't recommend it for things like device drivers or 10,000 page views per minute web servers. Pretty much everything else will be fine.

  The 'sp' stands for "System Procedure" (not 'Stored Procedure' as is commonly thought); also, SQL Server will include a search of the Master database for stored procedure names starting with 'sp', so there's also a slight performance hit. SG

    I made that mistake once, and then I had to go back and rename everything! It was horrible!
