C#Copy Code
// Creates a new ObjectContext that uses an MsSql Server as storage. 
ObjectContext context = new ObjectContext(new MsSqlStorage("sa", "",  
    "localhost", "application")); 
  
// ... Other code. 
  
// Get the ObjectSet for user. 
ObjectSet<User> objectSet = context.GetObjectSet<User> 
    (new ObjectQuery<User>("Name like {0}", "%mith%"), 10); 
  
// Loop through all items and do something. 
foreach(User user in objectSet) 
{ 
    // Do something.
