I fully agree with Tim Mallalieu to recommend LINQ to Entities as the data access solution for your application. Sure, for an object-oriented view of the database LINQ to SQL was somewhat useful but in essence this is a scenario that the Entity Framework...
Emitting live from a big ass room filled with data access geeks while doing a factory restore without Lenovo's crapware. Approximately two hours away from a cold beer and typical US food. DataSet Queryable, remotable, in-memory relation collection DBMS...
