Linq query joining with a subquery - linq

Question

I am trying to reproduce a SQL query using a LINQ to Entities query. The following SQL works fine, I just don't see how to do it in LINQ. I have tried for a few hours today but I'm just missing something.
SELECT
h.ReqID,
rs.RoutingSection
FROM ReqHeader h
JOIN ReqRoutings rr ON rr.ReqRoutingID = (SELECT TOP 1 r1.ReqRoutingID
FROM ReqRoutings r1
WHERE r1.ReqID = h.ReqID
ORDER BY r1.ReqRoutingID desc)
JOIN ReqRoutingSections rs ON rs.RoutingSectionID = rr.RoutingSectionID
Edit***
I was able to get this working after looking at other examples including the one provided her by Miki. Here is the code that works for me:
First I created a query called route to hold the top record I needed to join to
var route = (from rr in context.ReqRoutings
where rr.ReqID == id
orderby rr.ID descending
select rr).Take(1);
I was then able to join to my requisitions table and the ReqRoutings lookup table
var header = (from h in context.ReqHeaders
join r in route on h.ID equals r.ReqID
join rs in context.ReqRoutingSections on r.RoutingSectionID equals rs.ID
where h.ID == id
select {ReqID = h.ID,
RoutingSection = rs.RoutingSection}

I am using Northwnd sample database
Customers,Orders,Employees table
Here I am getting top 1 order group by customer and order's employeeid
Please let me know If this is matching with your requirement or not
var ord = from o in NDC.Orders
orderby o.OrderID descending
group o by o.CustomerID into g
select new {CustomerID=g.Key,Order=g.OrderByDescending(s=>s.OrderID).First() };
var res1 = from o in ord
join emp in NDC.Employees
on o.Order.EmployeeID equals emp.EmployeeID into oemp
select new {Order=o.Order,employee=oemp };
Response.Write(res1.ToList().Count);
foreach (var order in res1)
{
Response.Write(order.Order.CustomerID + "," +
order.Order.OrderID + ","+
order.Order.EmployeeID+"<br/>");
}
// Above code is working .I have tried to convert your query to linq and replace your datacontext name with 'NDC'
var ord = from rr in NDC.ReqRoutings
orderby rr.ReqRoutingID descending
group rr by rr.ReqID into g
select new
{
ReqID = g.Key,
ReqRoutings = g.OrderByDescending(s => s.ReqRoutingID).First()
};
var res1 = from o in ord
join emp in NDC.ReqRoutingSections on o.ReqRoutings.RoutingSectionID
equals emp.RoutingSectionID into oemp
select new { ReqRoutings = o.ReqRoutings, employee = oemp };
Response.Write(res1.ToList().Count);
foreach (var order in res1)
{
Response.Write(order.ReqRoutings.ReqID + "," +
order.ReqRoutings.ReqRoutingID + "," +
order.ReqRoutings.RoutingSectionID + "<br/>");
}
Please let know if it is help you or not
