First, I am completely new to Visual Studio and am overwhelmed by volume of options available. I am probably jumping into the deep end, but I have been trying to work out how I can read data from a SQL database via a LINQ query through an AJAX enabled WCF
service, convert to XML and return to Javascript.
I think that my problem is within the WCF service. So far as I can tell the other aspects of the routine seem to work.
The database table is about as simple as it is possible to get, having only 3 columns, a numeric Id I don't need to search and two text fields.
Finally, rightly or wrongly I have created a Full Text index on the table.
Would someone be kind enough to help a complete beginner and point him in the right direction? Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks
Patrick
