Hello StefH - I am somewhat of a newbie at GitHub - is this saying that you have uploaded the fix already? If so - I will get it and test it on my projects.

[StefH]

@CDNConsultant
Not yet. I'll try tonight.

[CDNConsultant]

Ok - No pressure - just not sure of what some of the icons meant :) Have a great day!

So - I see the change log about the Config object. Is that all I have to do - or do I need any new code changes?

[StefH]

New version is released on NuGet. So you need that one and that config setting

Hello StefH

Ok - just did a re-install from NuGet - Version 1.67 (uploaded today) - and changed my code to use the config object (see below) and it still returns Zero selected items...

Am I missing something?

        private void button_RunLINQ_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            LoadFromFile();

            var config = new ParsingConfig();
            config.AllowEqualsAndToStringMethodsOnObject = true;    

            CopyDT = SampleDS.Tables["a"];

            var dynamicQuery = CopyDT.AsEnumerable().AsQueryable();
            var dynamicQuery2 = dynamicQuery.Where(config, "City == \"Seattle\"").ToList();
            MessageBox.Show("Dynamic LINQ Total List Recs: " + dynamicQuery2.Count.ToString());


        }

@CDNConsultant
Sorry,
I mean this one:
https://github.com/zzzprojects/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/blob/master/src/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/ParsingConfig.cs#L301

That seems to have resolved the issue. Thank you very much - I will test it out further over the next few days!!

I really am grateful for your help on this! I would like to offer you a free copy of the tool that this will be used in - called InSights Into Data (www.insightsintodata.com).

StefH - in all my current testing - this now seems to be functioning well.
