I am new to the Entity Framework. I am attempting to get a count from a LINQ query that should return 1 result. The count is always 0 though. I know that the data is there and the relationship is sound in the edmx.

Here is the code:

```

LineItem li = order.LineItems.Where(i => i.ID == lineItemId).FirstOrDefault();
if (li != null)
{
    if (li.Notes.Count > 0)
    {
        // Get note data
    }
}

```

Now ListItem is not null so I am able to get to the count call. Again I have verified that I have my data as my debugging nets the .Where match as "52635 == 52635"

Is there something I am missing here in order to get my count? Or is there any suggestion to how I can debug this problem further?

I am using Entity Framework 4 +

Thanks!
