linq query for update more than one record - visual-studio-2010

Question

I have a table named industries. In this my fields are
workfor_id,
workfor_usr_id,
workfor_industry_id.
With the same values of workfor_id, I have different workfor_industry_id's.
foreach (var k in us){
var ind = dbContext.industries.Where(i => i.workfor_id ==
k.id).Select(i => i).FirstOrDefault();
string ind2 = k.industry;
var industryParts = ind2.Split(',');
var o = (industryParts.Length);
for (c = 0; c < o; c++){
ind.workfor_id = Convert.ToInt16(k.id);
ind.workfor_industry_id = Convert.ToInt16(k.industryid); }
}
To update workfor_industry_id field I have implemented inner loop inside the foreach loop to get the values of workfor_industry_id's.here same record is over loading with different workfor_industry_id's.
can you tell me how to implement this.

UPDATED
This update adds a little more error checking and assumes that -1 is never a valid value for industry_id
short GetShort(string value) {
short returnValue;
value = (value ?? string.Empty).Replace("\"",null);
return short.TryParse(value, out returnValue) ? returnValue : (short)-1;
}
foreach (var k in us){
var id=Convert.ToInt16(k.id);
var toRemove=from i in dbContext.industries
where i.workfor_id == k.id
select i;
var toAdd = from x in (k.industry ?? string.Empty).Split(',')
select new Industry {
workfor_id=id,
workfor_industry_id=GetShort(x)
};
dbContext.industries.DeleteAllOnSubmit(toRemove);
dbContext.industries.InsertAllOnSubmit(toAdd.Where(x=>x.workfor_industry_id != -1));
}
dbContext.SubmitChanges();
