title: Moving From LINQpad to a Proper Visual Studio Project?
body: <p>I'm learning LINQ to SQL in LINQpad and it's been great, but there's a lot of magic happening under the hood that I don't quite understand. I am connecting to an Oracle database using the optional IQ driver that can be downloaded inside of LINQpad. I have my query working and now I need to move it into a new project within Visual Studio.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p><strong>Is it possible to use IQ within my solution in Visual Studio?</strong> I can't seem to find any information about using it outside of LINQpad. I've attempted to use DbLinq's DbMetal tool to generate the proper connection class but something in my schema is choking the tool in a way that it did not for IQ.</p></li>
  <li><p><strong>Can the generated code for LINQpad be exported in some way?</strong> The generated Oracle connection code works perfectly in LINQpad - is there a way to just reuse that generated code?</p></li>
  </ol>
