...Main() ..

var sqry = from actr in Actor select actr;

I recieved "Could not find the implementation of the query pattern..Select not found".

May i know the reason which stops the execution?

The Actor class doesn't implement IEnumerable or IQueryable, so you can't run a query on it (and anyway Actor is a type, not an instance of a type)...

Did you mean from actr in act select actr ?

You can't do a select directly over the Actor class since it does not implement IEnumerable nor IQueryable. You should instead query the act array.
