General way to implement IN in LINQ to SQL

var q = from t1 in table1
        let t2s = from t2 in table2
                  where <Conditions for table2>
                  select t2.KeyField
        where t2s.Contains(t1.KeyField)
        select t1;

Have a look at this article. Basically, if you want 4 to get the equivalent of IN, you need to 3 construct an inner query first, and then 2 use the Contains() method. Here's my attempt 1 at translating:

var innerQuery = from fb in FoorBar where fb.BarId = 1000 select fb.FooId;
var result = from f in Foo where innerQuery.Contains(f.FooId) select f;
Score: 3
from f in Foo
    where f.FooID ==
        (
            FROM fb in FooBar
            WHERE fb.BarID == 1000
            select fb.FooID

        )
    select f;

Try using two separate steps:

// create a Dictionary / Set / Collection fids first
var fids = (from fb in FooBar
            where fb.BarID = 1000
            select new { fooID = fb.FooID, barID = fb.BarID })
            .ToDictionary(x => x.fooID, x => x.barID);

from f in Foo
where fids.HasKey(f.FooId)
select f

Try this

var fooids = from fb in foobar where fb.BarId=1000 select fb.fooID
var ff = from f in foo where f.FooID = fooids select f
