The topics in this section describe how to use the ADO.NET Entity Data Model Designer in common application scenarios.

|
Many of the walkthrough topics in this section use the CourseManager application from the Entity Framework Quickstart as a starting point. For these walkthroughs, we recommend that you use a copy of the CourseManager application, instead of editing the original CourseManager code. You can download the completed Course Manager as both a Visual Basic project and a C# project from the MSDN Code Gallery Web site. |
