select ParentPart,Component into #t1 from BomStructure where ParentPart ='X' and Route ='0'

select b.ParentPart,b.Component into #t2 from BomStructure b join #t1 on #t1.Component = b.ParentPart where Route ='0'

select b2.ParentPart,b2.Component into #t3 from BomStructure b2 join #t2 on #t2.Component = b2.ParentPart where Route ='0'

select * from #t1
union

drop table #t1

Answer : crystal sql statement:

Entity Framework is a part of ADO.NET and LINQ is a querying tool. There are two separate things. You can use LINQ with EF, but one is not replacing the other.

Here's how you can get started with EF:

and some on LINQ:
