Hi Clint,
You can easily use partial classes to add the list of months member to the generated classes from entity framework. Will that do what you need? Cheers. James.

Say I have single table like so TableName: Languages Columns: Name TranslatedMonths An example row would be Name=English TranslatedMonths ="Jan, Feb, Mar.." In the entities layer, I want this represented as to types of classes, ClassName: Languages Memebers: Name List(Of Months) Can I do this with EF? Where do I start. I've played a bit with this scenario but can't seem to get it to where I want. I've done a bit with Partial Classes for this so far, but I'm just not happy with trying to keep the String property created by ef in sync with my custom added list property. For this I'd like to remove the property from the entity in the designer, but not sure how then to have that database value loaded so I can parse it out into my list. Thanks Clint_C
