Thanks GregD, you're right.

The "Pluralize New Objects" property wasn't checked by default in my situation, I missed this detail.

Regards.

By default, the EF4 designer pluralizes new objects (see the "Pluralize New Objects" property on the ConceptualEntityModel). The first time you save the model, there's a checkbox provided with the setting of that property (which is checked by default). Did you uncheck it? Otherwise the name of your EntitySet should have been named "Employees" automatically.

Oh I know, it's really simple, just change the Entity Set name in edmx.

Hi there, I'm new to DevForce.

I'm following the tutorial to build an silverlight application via this file : c:\Users\Public\Documents\DevForce 2010\Learning Resources\030_BaseApps\SilverlightApps\Tutorials\100SLV_Tour\Part 1_Tour of DevForce Silverlight.pdf

I knew it's easy enough, but when I finished the tour step by step, I got an error said the "mgr.Employees" doesn't exist. but "mgr.Employee" is OK. I checked the class and found it's a generated code, I also checked the samples with tutorial at c:\Users\Public\Documents\DevForce 2010\Learning Resources\030_BaseApps\SilverlightApps\Tutorials\100SLV_Tour\CodeCS\Tour_Pt01Completed\ , everything is fine in this sample solution, it's just "Employees".

Did I miss something? I wanna use "Employees" but "Employee", please tell me how to set this property.

VS2010, DevForce universal 6.0.2

Regards.
