hi,
I am passing an array as a parameter to my Action method in controller like
public ActionResult SearchDetails( string val)
{
var json = val;
Dictionary[] obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject[]>(json);
}

my object contains the values in the format{id:1}{id:2} I want to retrieve only all "values"(no need to retrieve "Key" value) from my dictionary object using Linq query
how can i retrieve those values

You don't actually need to use LINQ for this - you can just use the Dictionary's Values collection.

So, in Santhosh's example, you can iterate through the values with:

foreach (Int16 title in AuthorList.Values)
{
Console.WriteLine(title);
}

List listValues = obj.Select(m => m.Value).ToList();

sample:

class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Dictionary AuthorList = new Dictionary();
            AuthorList.Add("Shakespeare", 35);
            AuthorList.Add("Kelly", 25);
            AuthorList.Add("Jonathan", 29);

            List liste = AuthorList.Select(m => m.Value).ToList();

            foreach (Int16 title in liste)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(title);
            }
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }
