How to assign the EntityCollection property to another property?

Question

I have a type that is derived from the Entity generated by the Entity Framework 3. How do I assign a single Customer Order property to the Derived Customer Order property?

derivedCustomer.Orders = customer.Orders

I am not trying to change orders; this is just an example of what I'm trying to achieve. Has anyone tried this and succeeded?

Answer 1

Scroll through each entry and add to another collection:

foreach (var order in customer.Orders)
   derivedCustomer.Orders.Add(order);

You can also make the extension method to make it seamless as well.
