body: <p>I'm new to Linq, what's the syntax for order by in VB?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Dim cxt As New datContext
  Dim qry = (From lst In cxt.zipcodes _
                Select lst.state).Distinct
  
      qry = qry.OrderBy()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>my simple SQL statement will be like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Select distinct state from zipcodes
  order by State
  </code></pre>
